HUARAZ ANOTHER PLACE TO VISIT

Hi guys this is another place to visit in Peru is Huaraz i s 7 hours away from Lima the best sightseeings are: Pato Canyon,Carhuaz;Caraz,Chavin de Huascar,and the beautiful lakes that there are in Huaraz.
The best month to go there is July( it ´s also Peruvian Independece day).
Well according to my own experience it´s an extraordinary place because once you visit you need to visit more because you don´t know all the places in 2 or 3 trips so be prepared for this nice trip
Well in July the weather is warm but durign the nights the temperatures are lower than the mornings.
I will show you some pics
the place is : Churup´s Lake the trip is safe and when you get there you are going to trek until you get to the lake but that takes approximately(if you are beginner ,5 hours) then you camp on the top of the mountain always drink
"mate de coca"( infusion) is a tradition if you visit Peruvians´ highlands.
So the next day you will trek the last part of the way and finallly you will be in contact with the coldest lake you have imagined.
Well after that you can make tourism with the people who live near the town you can see animals as bulls, cows, horses is an unforgettable place .
Guys the next topic is gonna be our potatoes because Peru has the most variety of potatoes in the world
See you
Ps :tell me what pla ce you recommend me to visit in your countries ;oP

Nice Pics, nice location!

Hi Lily, I wonder because you told us the best time to visit would be in July. I thought te best time to travel in Peru would be on the beginning of a year. In my opinion in July is te winter season like New Zealand, where I made a trip 2 years ago. You have a nice cosy cap. Because I´m living in Bavaria I think you should sea the very crowded Lake king "Königsee", some churches an "Neuschwanstein". Neuschwanstein is a picturesque caste from Ludwig the second. I think all foreigners visit the castle. I did this when I was 14 years. If you like beer then go to Munich to the Hofbräuhaus. There you can meet people from the whole world. I don´t recommend the mountains "Alpes" the Andes are more impressive.

Hi Lily,I'm a student.I'm living in busy city,Ho Chi Minh City.And I don't have more condition to visit places.In fact, HUARAZ is a beautiful spot.I also wish once I can do what you have done on the mountain.(^_^).My country is tropical homeland.Thus snow is imposible to see in my country.look over the photographs.The high mountain emphasize this site.Read your article, I can look back on several beautiful site in my country.Viet Nam is a peaceful country, and has several places well known.I think you have a good trip with beloved friend.thanks you have shared this photograph to everyone. Good luck to you

Hi Lily. As we can see through your pictures Peru is a country with a lot of quite beautiful natural places as mountains, canions, lakes, and the like. Could you give us some informations about what global warming is causing in peruvian climates and its landscapes? I hope the demage is not properly a fact.

Hi Lily Thank you very much for your fantastic blogs. I am sure every people reading your blog find it great but I like more than others because I am going to be on the way to go to this marvellous country after one month. I am very excited to read your entries before my travel. Come to Turkiye. There are many things and many places here to discover. Turkiye is very attraction place with rich history, sandy beaches, climate and landscapes. Turkiye lies on the ruins of many civilazations; Hittities, Greeks,Romans,Byzantine Empire, Seljuks and Ottomans. You can feel this wealth of history everywhere you go in Turkiye. Turkiye is a modern country as well traditional.I shouldn't forget saying our delicous cuisine.That's all for now. Thank you very much Lily. I am looking forward reading your blog. By the way, your shots are very nice. :)))

Hi Lily, I've realised you like opened landscapes. Here we have "Pirineos", but compared with your Andes it could be a fool's game. In this case I recommend you a visit to "Costa Brava", a wonderful area on the Mediterranean Sea shore. Thanks for your nice shots. Please don't stop and go on. See you, Toni.

Hi Lily! The pictures are amazing :-). See ya, Ana Paula.

Hello Lily, Breath-taking pictures,specially for one from low-land, where the sight is blocked only by some trees or bushes. Our country is rich in thermal springs where nice reacreational facilities have been built during decades. The springs with different curing effects are visited by foreigners,too.Just a few to mention:Piešťany,Dudince,Bardejov. At the very moment I am in one of them with my husband. We are taking a long week-end,swimming,walking and enjoying good cuisine. Thanks for guiding us in Peru and waiting for further places to see.Wishing you and your husband a pleasant week-end.

Hi Lily! Today is Valentine`s Day! I`m wondering if you celebrate it in Peru. Is it special day for you and your husband? ...I wish lots of love all year long, for you and all the readers!

¡Hola Lily! Nice to e-meet you. I am very interested in the culture of South America. Thanks for your pics and your recipe. I bet you celebrated V-Day yesterday. If so, how did you spend it? Cheers and pórtate bien.

Hi Lily! I really liked your post. I´m 23 years old and I´ve just graduated at Tourism course. I appreciate Peru a lot, although I never been there. Nice pictures! See you.. :D

Hi Lily! Wow!! What beautiful landscapes you portraied. This lake looks like something out of this world. And you look very nice in the pictures yourself. I hope I can visit your country one day in this lifetime. It really is worth. Here in Brazil, you might want to visit the beaches. Our coast is famous for it's beautiful beaches. Especially the ones in the northeast of the country. I've never been there myself, but everyone that has, tells us that it's worth going. So next time you come to Brazil, be sure to visit our nice beaches. Great work on the blog. See you later, Mauricio.

Hi Lily! I'm 20 years old. What beautiful pictures! In Japan, Hokkaido is very beautiful. If you come to Hokkaido, you can see floating ice and many lavender plants.

Hi, Lily! Now I'm looking your blog in my class in the language school attached to Auckland University in New Zealand. The reason why I wanted to write this comment to your blog is because I came here to study English to become an English teacher and you also want to become an English teacher. So work hard each other!!

Thanks for all your contributions. This blog has now closed and can no longer accept new comments.
