The Fortress of Kuelap is one of Perus hidden archaeological treaures, often called the Machu Picchu of the North
Built on a mountain ridge at an altitude of 3000 meters above sea level, the fortress is proof of the incredible stoneworking skill of the Chachapoyas people, who dominated the region between 1000 and 1400 AD.
The gigantic wall that protects the city includes a series of guard posts, a tower built overlooking a sheer cliff and three narrow entrances that forced invaders to enter in single file.
The wall reaches a height of 8 meters and extends for more than 600 meters to completely encircle the ruins.
The city inside is made entirely of stone, but in a very different architectural style from the Incas, with carvings of human faces and animal figures lining the main entrance passageway.
A string of geometric shapes, rhomboid stonework is built into the walls of most buildings.
The most common houses take the form of more than 400 large circular buildings, some of which have been reconstructed with conical thatched roofs to give visitors an idea of what they looked like when people were living here.
Kuelaps remote location at the top of a cloud forest means it gets fewer visitors than the more famous attractions around Cusco, but those that make it here get a real sense of ancient life in an eerie, isolated setting, surrounded by orchids, moss-laden trees and bromeliads.
The mix of ancient ruins and encroaching natural beauty creates a powerful impression.
Its easy to imagine how the fortress remained impregnable to armies like the Wari and other invaders.
It took an empire like the Incas to conquer Kuelap and the Chachapoyas people, but they continued to fight the invaders for decades after their defeat. Theyve left little of their language and culture to history, but their stone cities stand as their greatest monument.

To reach the ExplorNapo Lodge we board a speed boat, and travel on the upper reaches of the Amazon.
we then enter a tributary, the Napo River, and disembark at the ExplorNapo Lodge in a rainforest reserve.
The first stop is a visit to the Enthno-botanical Garden the ReNuPeRu next to the lodge.
The garden shows the vast variety of medicinal plants native to the Amazon. Many have found a place in modern medicine.
A canopy walkway through the treetops is an unforgettable experience.
More than 35 meters high 500 meters long, the walkway offers a privileged viewing platform to observe the plants and animals that live in the trees..
including birds and monkeys, reptiles and insects that never touch the ground in their lives.
Its accessible to everyone and doesnt require special skills or equipment.
Suspended among the 14 tallest trees in the reserve, the canopy walkway is the longest in the world.
During a boat excursion along one of the many branches of the Napo River youll spot macaws, toucans, three toed sloths and several species of monkey.
This and much more is waiting for you in Iquitos.

Each 15th of August the church and parish of Chachapoyas celebrate the festival of Mama Asunta
It all started between 1842 and 1845 when a local man, Julián Monteza returned from living in the Ecuadorian capital Quito…
He brought back two beautiful religious icons, the first was a statue of Jesus of Nazareth, the second depicted the Virgin of the umption.
With the passage of years, customs and tradition she was rebaptised with the name Virign Asunta.
The arrival of the statues from Ecuador was greeted by a procession, with drums and horns, but also in a religious spirit.
Since then Chachapoyas has reprised the festival every year, with everyone in town joining the fervent celebrations.

Sacred Valley Tour
The Sacred Valley follows the Urubamba river from the market town of Pisac, through the agricultural terraces that were once the engine room of the Inca empire and finishes at Ollantaytambo, an almost untouched Inca town, with an imposing temple looming over the valley.
The day starts with a walk through the Pisac markets. The town is swathed in white tarpaulins three days a week, under them stall holders compete to sell traditional artworks and textiles, huge wood fired ovens bake empanadas and guinea pigs, and the central plaza is filled with women selling fresh produce, with dozens of potato and corn varieties on show.
On the ridge above, the ruined fortress of Inca Pisac protects the southern end of the Sacred Valley while the Temple of the Sun shows the precision stonework Inca architects reserved for their most important religious buildings.
The road through the valley passes through the small towns of Coya, Lamay and Calca, and the larger center of Urubamba, surrounded on all sides by the astonishing andenes the agricultural terraces that fueled the Inca Empire, and gave the Andes mountain range its name.
The town Ollantaytambo gives an insight into the Inca way of life, with streets, houses and watercourses that survived the Spanish conquest.
The imposing ridge leading up to the stunning views from the Temple of the Sun is a string of gigantic terraces, a fortress strong enough to repel the Spanish. The unfinished temple at the top leaves you wondering how the Incas managed to move enormous rocks around the valley and up its ridges to shape them into precision stone walls by hand.

Puruchuco is located in the modern city of Lima, but it was constructed by the Incas between 1450 and 1532. Everything that happened here was marked in a ceremonial calendar, part of a building dedicated to religious activities.
The architects who designed Purchucos divided it into four sectors: A, B, C and D.
Sector A is linked to everything concerned with the outside world. It was here that inhabitants performed all their public activities.
Sector B served as the living area for permanent residents of Purchuco. Here youll find a kitchen and other quarters for the private daily life of townspeople.
Sector C is the compounds sacred area, where religious ceremonies took place. The. beauty of the architecture in this area reflects its ceremonial function. And last of all, Sector D is organized around a small patio and terrace.
This area was the destination for perishable products that were then prepared for storage. Fertur Peru Travel. A full service travel agency and tour operator dedicated to making your journey to Peru a dream come true.
