A Peace
Corps friend who lives in a mountain town close by recently came to Huallanca
to visit me and we went to explore some ancient Incan ruins that are about an
hour away from Huallanca. The ruins were in a stunning and peaceful valley
surrounded my beautiful mountains and farm animals where an Incan man used to
live who was there to protect the area from the invasion of the Spaniards. The
ruins were fascinating and we loved picturing where and how the Incans lived so long ago. It also got us both very excited to see the famous ancient Incan ruins of
Machu Piccu! Our families will both be visiting us in June and we will be going
to Machu Piccu with them to see the beauty of the Incan ruins!
Here are
some photos of the Incan ruins that are close to Huallanca:
