Cusco is tourist hell, totally driven by the tourist dollar. This is the jumping off point for all tourists on their way to Machu Picchu. A horrible place to be, but still pretty at night.

Machu Picchu, a 15th century Inca city that sits at about 2,500 meters in the Andes. Incredible to see it for myself.  incredible to actually see it for myself.

I got there at 7am, just as the mist was clearing to reveal the mystical city.

Mountains around Machu Picchu

I hiked up Machu Picchu Montana for a top-down view…nearly killed me though.

Just some more mountains…scenery here is stunning. I nearly run off the road looking around me sometimes,

Brewing some morning tea at a campsite.

Arrived in Puno, Peru, a lake town, to a huge festival. This is my last stop in Peru.
