Pisac

One of my favorite places I visited in Peru. We got there as the sun was coming up, and no one else was at the site for a good 2 hours. There was an amazing amount of working Incan waterways through here. The sound of running water was everywhere, with a public waterfall/fountain, and lots of water channels running through the whole site. It was preserved immaculately, and was a highlight of the trip for us, even though it started as an afterthought.
