Or: The mountain that was too much for me. Nice walk, nice view of Cusco though.

And then I was back in Cusco, to visit new and old friends!
Pisaq is probably the most beautiful sight around Cusco ( minus Macchu Picchu ). The pictures listed are just a sad approximation of this beautiful place and fine day
Moray and Ollantaytambo are both sites of the Sacred Valley area around Cusco. One is (Th T. ) is an old fort where the inca’s held out when they lost Cusco to the Spaniards, Moray is what people think a sort of laboratory, auditorium or place where the Inca’s used to play around. In the end, Salineas is a salt hill.

The road from Huancayo to Ayacucho and from Ayacucho to Cusco is an interesting one. It’s only about 450 km as the bird flies, but the total time for this track is a stunning 32 hours by bus. It sounds like horror but I can recommend it. Not only will you get over any fear of dangerous driving and bad roads, but also will you see all types of landscapes Peru has to offer. And besides Ayacucho and Huancayo are very nice and lovely cities. Some crappy impressions from the road.
