Reflections in the Canyon

Every morning in Colca Canyon, several hundred tourists arrive shortly after dawn in the hope of catching a glimpse of the Andean condor. Even if the birds never show the scenery is still stunning.

Just outside of Colca Canyon, everyone heads to the market day in Chivay to stock up on basics and perhaps a few sweets.

Red is everywhere in Peru, from handwoven blankets, to bright city fences and sweet fruity drinks.
