[Peru] A hidden gem in Cusco that only a few know about! Pali Puntu

Cusco, Peru is known for Machu Picchu, but in recent years, the perpetual snow has melted due to global warming, and previously unknown mountains like Rainbow Mountain have appeared and become popular tourist spots. One of these is "Pari Puntu" on the outskirts of Cusco. This place was also discovered by locals in recent years and has begun to be developed as a tourist spot. It is a hidden spot known only to those in the know. It is over 4,700m above sea level, higher than Rainbow Mountain, and even taking one step is really exhausting. Still, this red and earth color stripe is a must-see! I couldn't help but pay for two tours to visit! The red layer is iron and the blue layer is bronze. Global warming is never a good thing, but we are grateful to God that we can now see these spectacular spots. No admission fee required. It has not yet become a tourist destination, so there are no restaurants or souvenir shops. Only a few local tours are currently being run. photo on March 12th 2023 ⁠ Pally Punchu, located near Cusco, Peru, with a blue-and-red-striped geological layer, at around 4600m above sea level! According to the local guide, the red layer includes iron and the blue earth color layer includes blue copper, and also used to be covered with eternal snows for a long time, but had melted snow away recently under the influence of the global warming. I have never seen such an unique and beautiful colored mountain in the world. It's so amazing! #tripoverseastravel #peru #spectacularview #secretplace
