Ruins South of Lima

Once a girl was hand selected for this house her career path would go only one of three directions: sacrifice, concubine or teacher.

No, thats no mirrage. The ocean and it's rock islands just seem to pop out for teh desert from the top of the temple of the sun.



The ruins south of Lima are so much different than the ruins around Cusco and the Sacred Valley. The area matchs my expectaions for the desert enviroment near Marrakesh, not my expectation for a place on the ocean. Made almost entirely if adobe
these ruins are much more difficult to reconstruct as the adobe tend to return to the ground with time and the elements.


In Lima it is important to select the right taxi.. So far we have had good luck.
