Photo Gallery: The Pictures of Peru

Enlarge		One way Peruvians honor their dead relatives is by placing replicas of items that they enjoyed in life alongside them in their final resting place. In this case, it is seems that grandmom enjoyed Cusquena beer! (the three tiny red cases next to her photo).

Enlarge		'Chicha' is beer fermented from corn dating back to the Incas and still extremely popular today in the Andes. My Quechua-speaking friend raises her glass for a 'cheers' Peruvian style.

Enlarge		The legendary Inca Trail. Although you don't have to be an athlete to walk it, there are some steep climbs along the route.

Enlarge		Corn is one of the most important crops in the Peruvian Andes. A woman looks up from her work in the middle of the long green stalks.

Enlarge		The main plaza in Cusco. It is a place to soak in the atmosphere of this remarkable city, if the shoe shine and postcard sellers leave you in peace!

Enlarge		Smiling while she works. Members of the community in Villa el Salvador join together to fix common areas like parks.

Enlarge		Enjoying the sun on the doorstep of his house, Jesus has a laugh with the photographer and his wife.

Enlarge		The legend lives up to the hype. Machu Picchu must be seen at least once in a lifetime.

Enlarge		This young Quechua-speaking villager took a break from tending his cattle to come talk to us.

Enlarge		Taking a rest. A pretty young Quechua woman leans on her adobe house, sack of corn in hand.
