OH,TO BE BACK THERE NOW...

by neilward - last update: Apr 27, 2005

My Holy Grail.

Speachless
Its very difficult to get photos of such a famous landmark,that other people havent taken,so I`ve tried to do just that...
Perfect

The Watchtower

This is one of my favourite photos.
this was perfection personified for me,it summed up the whole place.
Also called the Caretakers Hut,its situated in the Agriculture sector,high above the main entrance,overlooking the whole city.

Perfectly shaped

Another fine example of Inca engineering,a perfect trapezoidal door leading through to another mysterious surprise.....
You can see Huayna Picchu in the background.

Pros:"Wonderful atmosphere,beautiful scenery."
Cons:"50 cents to use toilets ..when I didnt have any !!!"
In A Nutshell:"One of those places you just have to go and see"
