Ruin sites south of Lima and from around Nazca.
Ruins of Pachacámac, a site south of Lima. This a view of the Pyramid of the Sun in the background with other ruins in the foreground.
Chuchilla Cemetery near Nazca. This cemetery dates from pre-Inca times and, although the graves had been opened and ransacked, the remains have been returned to the restored graves in recent times.
The next three images were taken as we flew over the Nazca Pampas.
The hummingbird.
The tree
The eagle
The “window” wells that line the path above the pre-Inca aqueduct.
We got a close look at this “Nazca Line” which is a trapezoid that seems to mark the underground river tapped by the aqueduct in the previous photo.
