    Paredones

    May 16, 2022 in Peru ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F

    The Paredones was an early Incan expansion into the area. Stone is limited here, so it was used only at the bases of the most important structures, with adobe being used for most upper walls (which show the wear from the weather). This was interesting, but were flagging from the desert heat by then and we're happy to move on to an indoor museum.Read more

    Travelerit was desert, so shade made a huge difference but was hard to find. Highs were only in the low eighties, but the sun was super strong and beating on us.
