The Land of the Incas

0/5 ( ratings)

The Inca empire at its height stretched down the Andes for well over a thousand miles.

The magnificent stonemasonry and roads of the Incas frame their modern descendants, who still cultivate the terraces built by their ancestors; maintaining their own eclectic culture and religion, and struggling to find a place in the cities of six South American states.
