Well, there's a lot of ruins in Peru... This is the Pachacamac ruins. All of the structures here are made of mud... It should be noted that it doesn't rain at all in Lima. Imagine if it rained in Lima, there would be no ruins for us to visit anymore! Hehehe! This ruin is pre-Incan, so it was made before the Inca's time. You'll notice at a lot of the ruins there that there is a sun temple. We did climb the sun temple but the fog was too thick we couldn't see far at all. Too bad. The picture on the right is at the top of the sun temple. The climb up was not bad at all. (Or maybe it just felt that way since it's the beginning of our trip? hehehe!)
So, do you think this temple is restored too much? we were told that this temple is about 70% restored and that people are arguing that it was restored too much that it doesn't look like an authentic ruin... What do you think?
By the way, before we came to Pachamac, we ate at a buffet place in Lima called Junio's... I just wanted to mention it because the food was great! Loved the paella! =)
