Road to Puno
Na putu za Puno
Andahuaylillas
St. Peter's Church in Andahuaylillas is known as the Sistine Chapel of South America, one of the most beautiful examples of religious art in the Andes. And, not without reason. It really seems imposing. Photography is prohibited inside.
When you enter the church, on the left-hand side is the room where the Incas converted to Catholicism, i.e. received the new faith "imported" from Spain. On the right-hand side, is a large oil painting on canvas, depicting a soldier beheading John the Baptist.
The symbolism imposes:
What choice do the conquered Incas have?
- To the left, and to be baptized or
Go to the right-side and... lose their heads.
Andahuaylillas
Crkvu Svetog Petra u Andahuaylillas nazivaju Sikstinskom kapelom Juzne Amerike, jednim od najlepsih primera religiozne umetnosti Anda. I, ne bez razloga. Zaista deluje impozantno. Na zalost, slikanje unutra je zabranjeno.
Kada se udje u crkvu, sa leve strane je prostorija gde su se Inke pokatolicavale tj primale novu veru “uvezenu” iz Spanije. Suprotno, na desnoj strani, je veliko ulje na platnu (nepoznatog slikara) sa predstavom vojnika koji odseca glavu Jovanu Krstitelju.
Namece se simbolika:
Koji izbor imaju pokorene Inke?
- Da krenu levo, I budu pokrsteni ili
- Da idu na desnu tranu i... ostanu bez glave.
Raqchi
Rakci is an Inca archaeological site in Peru located in the Cusco region, Cancis province, San Pedro district, near the settlement of Rakci. It is located at 3480 meters above sea level and 110 kilometers from the city of Cuzco.
The archaeological site of Waracocha consists of:
- Temple
- Residential area
- Warehouses for corn in a circular shape (which I have not seen anywhere else in Peru.
Most Inca structures are enclosed by a 4 km long perimeter wall.
The founder of the site is the father of Pachacuti, the founder of Machu Picchu.
Raqchi was the primary checkpoint on the road system that originated in Cusco and expanded as the Inca Empire grew.
Rakci
Rakci je arheološko nalazište Inka u Peruu koje se nalazi u regionu Kusko, provinciji Kančis, okrugu San Pedro, u blizini naseljenog mesta Rakči. Nalazi se na 3480 metara nadmorske visine i 110 kilometara od grada Cuzco.
Archelosku lokaciju Waracocha cine:
- Hram
- Deo za stanovanje vladara
- Skladista za kukuruz kruznog oblika (sto nisam video vise nigde u Peruu.
Većina Inka struktura je ograđena 4km dugim perimetralnim zidom.
Osnivac je Waracocha, otac Pachacuti-a, osnivaca Machu Picchu.
Rakči je bila primarna kontrolna tačka na putnom sistemu koji je nastao u Kusku i proširio se kako je carstvo Inka raslo.
La Raya
La Raya is the highest point of Cusco - Many route (4,335 above sea level). It is the border between Cusco and Puno. From this point it is possible to see part of the snow-capped Bomboia which is part of the Andes mountain range.
Sometimes you can experience all four seasons in one day. I've experienced 2 seasons (summer and winter) within 5 minutes.
When we stopped, it was warm and sunny, so I got off the bus in just my shirt. Within 5 minutes, the snow began!? It melted imediately, but it was quite a surprise.
Judging by the way the locals are dressed, it seems that this phenomenon is not a surprise for them.
La Raya
La Raya je najviša tačka Cusco - Puno puta (4 335 nadmorske visine). Ovo mesto je granica između regiona Cusco i Puno. Od ove tačke je moguće videti deo snezni Bomboia koji je deo planinskog lanca Anda.
Cesto se cuje da neko dozivi sva 4 godisnja doba u jednom danu. Ja sam na La Raya prevoju doziveo 2 godisnja doba (leto i zimu) u razmaku od 5 minuta.
Kada smo stali, bilo je toplo i suncano tako da sam iz autobusa izasao samo u kosulju. U roku od 5 minuta, poceo je sneg!? Nije se zadrzao ali je bilo prilicno iznenadjenje.
Sudeci kako su lokalci obuceni, izgleda da ova pojava nije iznenadjenje za njih.
Pukara
The Pucará culture was an archaeological culture which developed in Qullaw, along the north-western shore of Lake Titicaca. It was characterized by a hierarchy of smaller centers and villages scattered throughout the northern basin of the Titicaca. The name originates from the town of Pukara, one of the largest settlements in the region.[1] The modern town of Pucará is located half a mile to the east of the archaeological site. The Pukara culture is unrelated to the stone fortresses, pukaras, built across the Andes during the Inca Empire. Its sphere of influence reached as far north as the Cuzco Valley and as far south as Tiahuanaco. The culture had two phases of development within the Formative Period: the Middle Formative (1400 to 550 BC), and Late Formative (550 BC to 400 AD).
Pukara
Kultura Pucara je arheološka kultura koja se razvila u Kullavu, duž severozapadne obale jezera Titicaca. Karakteriše ga hijerarhija manjih centara i sela razbacanih širom severnog sliva Titicaca. Ime potiče od grada Pukara, jednog od najvećih naselja u regionu. Moderni grad Pucara nalazi se pola milje istočno od arheološkog nalazišta. Kultura Pukara nije povezana sa kamenim tvrđavama, pukaras, izgrađenim širom Anda tokom carstva Inka. Njegova sfera uticaja dostigla je daleko na sever do doline Cuzco i na jugu do Tiahuanaca. Kultura je imala dve faze razvoja u formativnom periodu: srednji formativni (1400 do 550 pne), i kasno formativni (550 pne do 400 AD).
