Ladies in Huaraz
The all-important coca
Beautiful Chavín
Say cheese :)
That’s the highest we’ve stayed, almost 3 200 m
Ladies chatting
Still in Chavín
On a market
Temples, plazas and mazes of the ancient Chavín civilisation, now under UNESCO protection
A small replica of Lanzon, the main deity of Chavín culture
A lady selling fermented corn lemonade
They are all around
I bought a great snack here..

Entonces, hasta luego! :)
