a few more ruins.

Friday morning we headed out with our guide to visit a few more ruins just outside of Cusco. The first stop was Q'enqo, a religious spot for the Incas where they performed a lot of rituals. The second stop was Saqsayhuaman. The stones used here are massive. And so closely spaced that a piece of paper won't fit through many of them. Some people say the complex was built to represent the head of a puma, but they pretty much say that everything looks like some animal. There were really great views of Cusco from here as well.
