My favorite landscape in Perú: Turquoise lagoons and waterfallssteemCreated with Sketch.

in #travel7 years ago

Today I want to share pictures of my favorite landscape in Perú. I know my country is mainly known by Machu Picchu, but I want to show you other places.

The rivers that flows to the Pacific Ocean are born in the Andes. One of them, Cañete river (in the central andes, Lima region), lower the Andes forming turquoise lagoons and small waterfalls. The landscape is breathtaking and now the area is a natural reserve (Nor Yauyos Cochas Reserve) with the main goal to protect the landscape.

This is the Cañete river

My father @prosumidor love to travel too and he was my trek partner during this trip. One of the many lagoons formed by the river.
