Peru: Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley
A Photographic & Cultural Tour
Peru
is a fascinating mix of old and new, farmers work mountain terraces
built over two thousand years ago, while todays churches rise
from the stones of ancient Incan temples.
With its snow-capped Andean peaks, untouched
rain forest, and one of the driest deserts in the world, it is one
of the most spectacular countries on earth.
The proud heritage of the Quechua people and their rulers, the Incas,
can be
experienced
in one of the greatest civilizations the world has ever known. Liv
ing
in isolated villages, half the population only speak Quechua or Aymará.
These neighborhoods and Perus lovely colonial cities combine
with the European heritage contributing to an elegance that remains
today. The two cultures have remained proud and independent, adding
to the richness of life in modern Peru.
As
we travel overland through the Sacred Valley
you will discover many sites often missed by the casual tourist. Well
visit the local markets that afford us a view of todays Quechua
among the myriad colors of bright clothing and local produce. There
will be ample time to record our images in this remarkable land.
