    Temple Nightclub, Cuzco, Peru by: livefasttravel Views[243] Cuy in Cuzco by: livefasttravel Views[251] Knitting boys on Taquile - mixture of traditional and modern. There are 3 rules on Taquile - don't steal, don't lie and don't be lazy. So women wave, but man knit (because it's easier than waving). Many tourists visiting the island are told about the traditional customs and offered to buy the knitwear although not all locals wear the traditional clothing. It's a stick with two ends - differences make travelling more interesting, but everyone on Earth must also have equal oportunities and comfort. by: laste Views[407] While hiking up to the summit of Machu Picchu mountain, on a day with ill-tempered weather, one can lose track of the view and get lost in the smoky chill of the clouds. Soaring heights are diminished to just a few feet and temperatures plummet as the sun is blocked from the skin. Heart rates can rise, not just because of the elevation, but because of the isolation, displacing time for an otherworldly moment. by: jmillerjtm Views[371] A tourist in Machu Picchu takes a photograph on their I-Phone, engrossed in the pixels illuminating their display. Flashes and smiles are temporarily abound in a monument that's seen many faces come and go. by: jmillerjtm Views[387]
     
    Sand-boarders begin the calf-searing climb up the sand dunes of Huacachina, near Ica in Southwestern Peru. An extremely diverse landscape, Peru is full of contrasts. Here, where ocean meets desert meets mountains, the boarders will ride, leaving snaky trails as the sun dissipates from view, alone to their shrieks and laughter and at whim to the winds of the dunes. by: jmillerjtm Views[336] Cuzco, Perù by: livefasttravel Views[219] Cuzco, Perù by: livefasttravel Views[213] View from Amaru Hostel Cuzco, Perù by: livefasttravel Views[289] Cuzco, Perù by: livefasttravel Views[201]
     
    Men wearing red hats mean they’re married. Those with coloured hats are considered to be important or old people. At the party they drink beer and PURE sugar cane alcohol. Of course they end up completely drunk and I was told it's pretty common to see them sleeping all over the fields, straight under the sunlight. And it was only the 2nd day of celebration! by: danielotta Views[776] According to their ancient laws and traditions, the couple getting married are not allowed to stand up or dance, but guests can! The husband and wife must remain sitting while everyone celebrates. This is so strict that they even have to be fed by their relatives. by: danielotta Views[380] Weddings in this island last 8 days and the couple must remain sitting like that. They don't use invitations, all the people in the island (about 2.200) must go to the wedding party. Every guest has to attach money to their clothes and they will be provided with food and drinks. 35 sheeps had been killed for this unique wedding. by: danielotta Views[415] Welcome to the beautiful and unique Taquile Island, on Lake Titicaca. This Island is protected by the UNESCO because their people are known for their fine handwoven textiles and clothing, regarded as some of the finest quality handy crafts in the world. Their textile art is produced as an everyday activity, mostly by men and children and worn by all members of the community. In fact, males have to needle the dress for their future wife. by: danielotta Views[436] Face2face hiking Peru's antiplano. by: patricia Views[345]
