David Matusiak – American Traveler & Photographer – Images from the past 40 years
A white horse was munching grass near a meandering river. This was fifty feet or so from the Inca Trail starting point, and we had four days and three nights to complete it (with the help of our excellent guides and porters). This animal was indeed the last horse we’ll see for a while.
The steeply structured gardens and staircases at this site were pretty impressive. And the orange coloration on the stone really stands out in contrast to the green grasses and mountains around it.
The walk up this ancient structure was mind boggling and the stonework was incredible to behold. There are so many paths, but only so much time to explore and they all looked amazing. The mountain in the distance has some very delicate historic Inca sites on it.
