Ukuqala uhambo oluya ePeru kunikeza uhambo olugcwele okutholakele okumangazayo. Lesi sizwe sinenqwaba yezinto ezihehayo kusukela ehlathini eliminyene lase-Amazon kuya emanxiweni amangalisayo e-Machu Picchu, okuqinisekisa uhambo olugcwele izikhathi ezikhumbulekayo. Kodwa yini ngempela eyenza ukuvakasha kuhluke? Ake sihlole izinto ezibukwayo ezibalulekile nemisebenzi ehlanganisa isiko eliyingqayizivele lasePeru, umlando ocebile, nezindawo zemvelo ezimangalisayo.
I-Peru iyinqolobane yokuhlangenwe nakho. I-Amazon Basin inikeza ithuba elingenakuqhathaniswa lokucwiliswa kwenye yezinhlelo zemvelo ezinhlobonhlobo zeplanethi. Lapha, abahambi bangahlanganyela ekuvakasheni kwemvelo, ukubona izilwane zasendle, ngisho nokuvakashela imiphakathi yendabuko, benikeza umbono wendlela yokuphila evumelana nemvelo.
Akukho ukuvakashela Peru izobe iphelele ngaphandle kokubona ubukhazikhazi be-Machu Picchu. Leli dolobha lasendulo lama-Inca, eliphakeme e-Andes, alilona nje ubufakazi bokuhlakanipha kwezakhiwo; iyingosi yesikhathi esedlule, enikeza ukuqonda ngempucuko yama-Incan. Uhambo oluya e-Machu Picchu ngokwalo, noma ukuhamba nge-Inca Trail noma ukuthatha umzila wesitimela owubukhazikhazi, lugcwele ama-vistas amangalisayo nolwazi olucebisayo.
Ngale kwalezi zindawo eziyisakhiwo sodumo, i-Peru ecebile yamasiko eqoshiwe iyaphila emadolobheni ayo. I-Cusco, inhloko-dolobha engokomlando yoMbuso Wama-Inca, inikeza inhlanganisela yezakhiwo zamakholoni nezinsalela ze-Incan. Khonamanjalo, inhloko-dolobha yase-Lima ikhombisa ubuhle bokudla basePeru, ngokuhlanganisa kwayo imithelela yomdabu, iSpanishi, i-Afrika kanye neyase-Asia, okuyenza ivakashelwe abathandi bokudla.
Kulabo abafuna ukuxhumana nemvelo, i-Colca Canyon inikeza ukubukwa okumangalisayo nethuba lokubona amakhondomu amahle ase-Andean endizayo. IChibi iTiticaca, ichibi eliphakeme kunawo wonke okuhamba kuzo imikhumbi emhlabeni, linikeza ubuhle obuzolile kanye neziqhingi ezintantayo eziyingqayizivele zabantu base-Uros.
Ekwakheni uhambo oluya ePeru, kumayelana nokuhlanganisa lokhu okuhlangenwe nakho ukuze kwakheke ukulandisa okucebile nokuhlukahlukene njengezwe ngokwalo. Kusukela ekujuleni kwe-Amazon kuya eziqongweni ze-Andes, iPeru imema abahambi ukuthi bangagcini nje ngokubona, kodwa bazibandakanye nomlando wayo, isiko, nobuhle bemvelo ngendlela ejulile neyomuntu siqu.
Hlola i-Amazon
Lapho ngingena e-Manu National Park yasePeru, ngaqala uhambo olungajwayelekile nginqamula i-Amazon, indawo evame ukubizwa ngokuthi 'amaphaphu omhlaba' ngenxa yobuningi bezinto eziphilayo ezinhlobonhlobo. Lokhu kuhlola kwanginikeza ukuzibonela mathupha indlela yokuphila ecebile echuma kula mahlathi, kusukela ezinhlobonhlobo zezitshalo ezimangalisayo kuya ezilwaneni zasendle ezingavamile ezibiza le ndawo ngokuthi ikhaya. Ukuzulazula ezindleleni zamanzi ezinokuthula ngesikebhe noma ngesikebhe, ngizithole ngikhexile ngenxa yobuhle bemvelo obungizungezile.
Esinye sezici ezagcwaliseka kakhulu ohambweni lwami kwakuwukuhlanganyela emizamweni yokongiwa kwemvelo. Ukuhlanganyela emisebenzini efana nokutshala izihlahla nokuqapha izilwane ezisengozini kwangivumela ukuba ngixhumane ngokujulile ne-ecosystem yase-Amazon, ngiqokomisa ukubaluleka kokulondoloza indawo eyingqayizivele enjalo ukuze izizukulwane ezizayo.
I-Amazon ayigcini nje ngezimangaliso zemvelo; kubuye kube yingcebo yokubaluleka komlando. Ngaba nethuba lokuhlola izindawo zasendulo ezashiywa abantu baseChachapoyan, kuhlanganise nezinqaba eziphakeme zezintaba namanxiwa ayindilinga, nginikeza ukuqonda ngesiko elachuma kudala ngaphambi kokuvela kwama-Inca.
Okunye engingasoze ngakukhohlwa kwakuwuhambo lwasemoyeni lweNazca Lines. Ukubuka lawa ma-geoglyphs amakhulu futhi angaqondakali esibhakabhakeni kwangishiya ngikhexile ngobuhlakani bemiphakathi yasendulo futhi ngizindla ngenjongo yale midwebo emangalisayo eyandulela ama-Inca ezinkulungwaneni zeminyaka.
Kwabafuna injabulo, i-Amazon iletha ngemisebenzi efana ne-white water rafting e-Rio Apurimac. Inhlanganisela yama-rapids ayinselele kanye nemvelo ebabazekayo eyenzelwe uhambo olujabulisayo, okwengeza into ejabulisayo ohambweni.
Ukuhlola kwami i-Amazon ePeru kwakungaphezu nje kohambo; kwakuwuhambo olujulile lokutholwa nokuxhumana nomhlaba wemvelo. Lesi sifunda sinikeza inhlanganisela yokuhlangana kwezilwane zasendle, umsebenzi wokongiwa kwemvelo, nokuhlola amasiko asendulo, okuyenza ibe indawo ekahle yawo wonke umuntu onomoya wokuzidela nothando lwemvelo.
Vakashela i-Machu Picchu
Ukuhlola i-Machu Picchu kuyinto egcwele izimanga, kakhulu ngenxa yokubaluleka kwayo okungokomlando. Leli dolobha lasendulo le-Inca liheha izivakashi ngamanxiwa alo agcinwe ngendlela emangalisayo nezimfihlakalo ezizungezile. Okwenza ikhetheke nakakhulu izinhlobonhlobo zezindlela ezitholakalayo, kusukela ku-Inca Trail eyinselele kuya endleleni efinyeleleka kalula ye-Sun Gate. Le mizila inikeza ukubukwa okuyingqayizivele futhi ikuvumela ukuthi ujule ebuhleni bemvelo obuzungeze lesi sizinda somlando.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Machu Picchu iyiphupho lomthwebuli wezithombe, ngenxa yezakhiwo zayo ezinhle kanye nezindawo ezimangalisayo. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uthwebula inkungu yasekuseni egingqika phezu kwamasimu noma ukubukwa kwe-panoramic ekushoneni kwelanga, ishothi ngalinye libonisa umlingo wale ndawo eyisithombe.
Ukuze uyazise ngempela i-Machu Picchu, kubalulekile ukuqonda umongo wayo womlando. Yakhiwa ngekhulu le-15, kukholakala ukuthi bekuyindawo yasebukhosini noma indawo yezenkolo engcwele yabaholi be-Inca. Naphezu kokushiywa kwayo ngekhulu le-16, eziningi zezakhiwo zokuqala zihlala zinjalo, ngenxa yomsebenzi wamatshe we-Inca onamakhono. Lokhu kuqina ngokumelene nesikhathi kungeza ekuyengeni nasekubalulekeni kwesayithi.
Imizila eholela e-Machu Picchu ayinikezi nje kuphela inselele ngokomzimba kodwa futhi ihlinzeka ngohambo ngokusebenzisa imvelo ehlukahlukene, ebonisa ukuhlukahluka kwemvelo okucebile kwesifunda. Ngokwesibonelo, i-Inca Trail idlula emahlathini anamafu, i-alpine tundra, namanxiwa amaningi e-Inca, inikeza umbono wezimangaliso zobunjiniyela be-Inca kanye nobuhlobo bayo obuvumelanayo nemvelo.
Kubathandi bokuthwebula izithombe, ukukhanya okuguqukayo nethunzi phezu kwe-Machu Picchu kudala isimo sezwe esiguqukayo esiyinselele nesivuzayo sokuthwebula. Ukudlala kokukhanya kuthuthukisa umuzwa ongaqondakali wesayithi, okwenza isithombe ngasinye sihluke. Isiqongo esidumile se-Huayna Picchu sinikeza ingemuva elimangalisayo lamanxiwa, kuyilapho uMfula i-Urubamba omangelengele esigodini esingezansi unezela endaweni emangalisayo.
Ukubaluleka Okungokomlando kwe-Machu Picchu
Ukuvakashela i-Machu Picchu kufana nokubuyela emuva enkathini ebalulekile emlandweni. Leli tshe eliyigugu lasePeru, eliphakathi kwezintaba zase-Andes, lasebenza njengendawo engcwele yokucasha impucuko yamaInca. Njengoba ngizulazula ezakhiweni zamatshe eziklanywe kahle futhi ngithatha imibono ebanzi yeSigodi Esingcwele, ikhono nobuciko babantu base-Inca buyabonakala.
I-Inca Trail eholela e-Machu Picchu inikeza ithuba eliyivelakancane lokuhamba ngendlela eyake yahamba ngayo i-Inca yasendulo, ohambweni lwezinsuku ezintathu oluyinselele kodwa olunenzuzo. Njengoba ngizungezwe izinsalela ezimangalisayo zeDolobha Elilahlekile, kuyacaca ukuthi ngiphambi kwefa elinamandla elishiywe yi-Inca.
Ubuhlakani bezakhiwo ze-Inca kanye nekhono labo lokuhlanganisa izakhiwo zabo nemvelo yemvelo kuyamangalisa. Ngokwesibonelo, indlela abaklama ngayo amasimu ezolimo nokunemba kwezindonga zabo zamatshe eziye zahlala isikhathi eside ngaphandle kokusebenzisa udaka ibonisa ukuqonda kwabo okuthuthukile ngobunjiniyela nezakhiwo. Lezi zici azibonisi nje ubuhlakani bazo kuphela kodwa futhi nenhlonipho ejulile ngemvelo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, indawo ekahle ye-Machu Picchu kanye nendima yayo njengesikhungo sezenkolo, semikhosi, nezolimo kugqamisa ukubaluleka kwayo ngaphakathi koMbuso Wama-Inca. Kukholakala ukuthi yakhiwe umbusi we-Inca uPachacuti ngekhulu le-15, iqiniso elisekelwa amarekhodi omlando kanye nobufakazi bemivubukulo. Ikhono laleli sayithi lokuhlala lifihliwe kubanqobi base-Spain ligcine izakhiwo zalo nezinto zobuciko, linikeza umbono oqondile wempilo yansuku zonke yempucuko ye-Inca kanye nemikhuba yomoya.
Izindlela Zokuqwala Izintaba kanye Nemizila
Ukuhlola i-Machu Picchu kuvula umhlaba wohambo lokuqwala izintaba e-Peru, izwe okuyindawo eyiphupho yabahambi. Phakathi kwemizila eminingi, i-Inca Trail igqamile, ihlinzeka ngohambo oludabula izindawo ezimangalisayo ukuya e-Machu Picchu enhle kakhulu. Kulabo abafuna inselele enzima, uhambo lwe-Santa Cruz ku-Cordillera Blanca range luyisinqumo esihle kakhulu. Lolu hambo luthatha izinsuku ezimbalwa futhi lubonisa izintaba ezimangalisayo, amachibi ahlanzekile, neziqongo ezinde ezimbozwe yiqhwa. Okunye okuyingqayizivele okuhlangenwe nakho kokuqwala izintaba uhambo oluya e-Rainbow Mountain, olumangaza ngemibala yalo egqamile nokubukwa kwe-panoramic. I-Peru inikezela kuwo wonke amazinga abaqwala izintaba nemizila nemizila ehlukahlukene, eheha ukuhlola.
Ekunikezeni ulwazi olucebisayo, kuyasiza ukuqonda ukubaluleka kwale mizila. I-Inca Trail ayiyona nje indlela; iwuhambo oludlula emlandweni, oluxhuma amanxiwa e-Inca asendulo aholela e-Machu Picchu, Indawo Yamagugu Omhlaba ye-UNESCO. Uhambo lukaSanta Cruz lunikeza ukucwiliswa enhliziyweni yeCordillera Blanca, ingxenye ye-Huascarán National Park, nayo eyiNdawo Yamagugu Omhlaba ye-UNESCO, egujwa ngobuhle bayo bemvelo obumangalisayo nokuhlukahluka kwemvelo. I-Rainbow Mountain, noma i-Vinicunca, iyisimangaliso se-geological, edume ngomhlabathi wayo ocebile ngamaminerali odala imigqa yemibala egqamile emithambekeni yayo yonke.
Lolu hambo lungaphezu nje kokuqwala izintaba; kungukuhlangenwe nakho okunothiswe ifa lemvelo namasiko ePeru, okwenza isinyathelo ngasinye satholwa. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uzulazula ku-Inca Trail yomlando, wamukela ubuhle obumangelengele be-Santa Cruz trek, noma umangazwa imibala ye-Rainbow Mountain, i-Peru ithembisa uhambo olungalibaleki kuye wonke umuntu oqwala izintaba.
Amathuba Wezithombe
Ukuze uvule ubukhazikhazi obubonakalayo be-Machu Picchu, ngena emathubeni ezithombe lesi sizindalwazi samagugu omhlaba se-UNESCO esinikezwa ngokuphana. Nansi indlela yokuthuthukisa umdlalo wakho wokuthatha izithombe:
- Hlola isimangaliso sakudala se-Machu Picchu ngemibono eyahlukene. Thwebula umsebenzi wayo wamatshe onemininingwane kanye nezindawo eziwubudedengu, obonisa ubuhlakani bezakhiwo zabadali bawo.
- Ukukhanya okungaqondakali ekuseni noma kuhwalala kungaguqula izithombe zakho zibe izigcawu ezikhangayo, zikhanyise amanxiwa asendulo ngobuciko obumangalisayo.
- Naka imininingwane emihle, efana nezwe lase-Andean elimangalisayo nezitshalo ezinempilo ezizungeze isayithi. Lezi zici zengeza isendlalelo sokunotha kanye nomxholo ezithombeni zakho.
I-Machu Picchu, enezimpande zayo zomlando ezijulile kanye nezindawo ezipelayo, iyiphupho lomthwebuli wezithombe. Ngakho-ke, pakisha ikhamera yakho futhi ulungiselele ukubhala imilingo yale ndawo emangalisayo.
Zitike ngePeruvian Cuisine
Ukuhlola i-Peru kuvula umhlaba wezinto ezithokozisayo zokupheka ezinothe ngokunambitheka nomlando. Uhambo lukuthatha ukusuka emadolobheni asendulo ase-Cusco kanye nasesigodini sase-Urubamba esiluhlaza kuya endaweni yokudla okunempilo yase-Lima, okubonisa inhlanganisela yokunambitha okuqinisekile ukuthi izoheha noma yimuphi umthandi wokudla.
Qala ukuhlola kwakho ukudla ngokudla kwendabuko obekuyisisekelo e-Peru amakhulu eminyaka: ingulube ye-Guinea ethosiwe. Kwaziwa endaweni ngokuthi i-cuy, lesi sidlo sivamise ukuphakelwa amazambane kanye nesoso ye-aji, enikeza isipiliyoni sokunambitha esihlukile. Okubaluleke ngokulinganayo ukuzama i-ceviche, isidlo esiqabulayo esifaka ukudla kwasolwandle okufakwe amajusi e-citrus futhi okunongwe ngopelepele we-aji, okubonisa ukusha nokuqabuleka okungenakuqhathaniswa kwezithako zasePeruvia.
Uma uhamba udabula ePeru, ithonya lamasiko ahlukahlukene ekudleni kwalo liba sobala. E-Amazon yasePeru, uzothola ithuba lokunambitha izithelo eziyingqayizivele nezinhlanzi zasemfuleni, unikeze amazwibela ekudleni kwendawo. Khonamanjalo, edolobheni lamakoloni lase-Arequipa, ungajabulela i-rocoto relleno, isidlo esiqukethe upelepele ofakwe okubabayo oveza amasiko okupheka akulesi sifunda.
Ukuvakashela ePeru bekungeke kuphelele ngaphandle kokubona i-Machu Picchu, Indawo Yamagugu Omhlaba ye-UNESCO. Ngemva kokuthatha amanxiwa asendulo amangalisayo namasimu ezolimo, phumuza isiphuzo sendabuko sasePeru. I-pisco sour, eyenziwe nge-pisco, ijusi ye-lime, ushukela, kanye neqanda elimhlophe, i-cocktail edumile ehlanganisa ngokuphelele umoya wasePeru. Kusebenza njengesiphetho esifanele ohambweni olungasoze lwalibaleka endaweni yokupheka yezwe.
Lokhu kuhlola akukwethuli nje kuphela ukudla okuhlukahlukene nokunambitheka kwasePeru kodwa futhi nakuma-tapestry amasiko anothile okuthonya lokho. Kusukela ezindaweni eziphakeme kuya e-Amazon, isidlo ngasinye sixoxa indaba yesiko, ukuqamba okusha, nokuxubana kwamasiko, okwenza uhambo lwakho lokudla lube yingxenye ebalulekile yokuqonda nokwazisa leli zwe elihle.
Thola Izithombe Ezivelele zikaLima
Ukuhlola i-Lima kuveza izindawo ezimbili ezivelele ezihlanganisa ngempela ingqikithi yedolobha: isikhungo esinomlando kanye nesifunda sase-Miraflores esinempilo.
Isikhungo somlando sicwilisa izivakashi ezweni lobuhle bekoloni, elinezikwele ezibabazekayo, namasonto amahle alandisa ngomlando ocebile wedolobha. Yindawo lapho umlando awukhunjulwa nje kuphela kodwa uzwakala ematsheni nasemigwaqweni.
Ama-Miraflores, ngokuphambene, ama-pulses ngempilo yesimanje. Lo makhelwane uyisikhungo sezitolo zemfashini, izindawo zokudlela ezithokozisayo, nezindawo ezimangalisayo zasolwandle, ezibonisa ubuhle besimanje buka-Lima eduze nogu lwayo oluhle.
Lezi zifunda zigqamisa inhlanganisela engenazihibe yokujula komlando we-Lima kanye nokudlidliza kwayo kosuku lwanamuhla. Isikhungo esinomlando, esinezimpawu zomhlaba ezifana ne-Plaza Mayor kanye ne-Basilica Cathedral, sinikeza uhambo ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, kuyilapho i-Miraflores, enezindawo ezikhangayo ezifana ne-Parque Kennedy kanye ne-Larcomar, iveza iwindi lokushaya kwenhliziyo kwedolobha kwamasiko nezenhlalo.
Lokhu okubili kwenza iLima ingabi nje idolobha ongalivakashela, kodwa idolobha ongalizwa, linikeza imininingwane mayelana nesikhathi esedlule, samanje, nekusasa lasePeru.
Isikhungo Somlando sikaLima
Gxumela enhliziyweni ye-Lima ngokuhlola Isikhungo Somlando esamukelwa yi-UNESCO, uhambo oludalula ubuhle bekoloni bedolobha kanye nokujula kwamasiko alo.
Qala e-Plaza de Armas, inkaba ye-Lima, lapho izakhiwo ezinhle zamakoloni zingagcini nje ngokudonsa amehlo akho kodwa ziphinde zixoxe nezindaba zesikhathi esedlule. Lesi sikwele esimatasa siyindawo ekahle yokuzwa umoya wedolobha futhi uqonde ukuthi kungani siyingxenye emaphakathi efa likaLima.
Ukuvakashela amaCatacombs eSigodlo sezindela saseSan Francisco akunakuphuthelwa. Efihliwe ngaphansi kwedolobha, la mathuna asebenza njengokhiye wendida yomlando namasiko ka-Lima, enikeza imininingwane ngemikhuba yezenkolo nobuhlakani bezakhiwo bangaleso sikhathi.
I-Basilica Cathedral yaseLima ingenye igugu, emi njengobufakazi bokuzinikela kwenkolo yedolobha kanye nekhono lobuciko. Ngaphakathi, uzothola iqoqo lobuciko elicebile emlandweni njengoba linobuhle, okwenza kube ukuvakasha okubalulekile kulabo abafuna ukubamba ingqikithi yomoya kanye nobuhle be-Lima.
Uma uzulazula emigwaqweni eyingqophamlando, uzozithola umbozwe amasiko endawo kanye nobukhona obubabazekayo baleli dolobha lamakoloni elibalulekile. Kulabo abahlela uhambo oluya ePeru nabamagange ukuhlolisisa amagugu esizwe, Isikhungo Somlando saseLima siyinto ebalulekile, enikeza inhlanganisela yezimangaliso zezakhiwo, imininingwane yomlando, nokunotha kwamasiko.
Isifunda sase-Miraflores
Ngena enhliziyweni ye-Lima ngokuhlola i-Miraflores District enempilo, etholakala ezweni elimangalisayo lasePeru. I-Miraflores igqama njengendawo ebalulekile yabahambi abafuna uhambo olungalibaleki.
Lesi sifunda, esicwile emlandweni kanye nokukhangayo kwamakholoni, sinikeza inqwaba yezinto ezikhangayo ezifanele ukuthanda okuhlukahlukene. Zulazula endaweni engaseceleni kolwandle, lapho kulindelwe ukuthenga okuphezulu, ukudla kanye nezindawo zokulala. Qalisa uhambo lokuhamba ngezinyawo ukuze uthole idolobha lamakoloni, eliqashelwa yi-UNESCO, uqinisekise ulwazi lwamasiko olucebile.
Okufanele uvakashele i-Museo Larco, ebungazwa ngeqoqo layo elibanzi lezinto zobuciko ezivela e-Peru Yasendulo kanye neqoqo layo eliyingqayizivele lobuciko obuvusa inkanuko, elinikeza ukuqonda mayelana nesikhathi esidlule esicebile semivubukulo yezwe. Enye ingcebo ye-Miraflores iphiramidi yasendulo ye-adobe, i-Huaca Pucllana, enikeza amazwibela emlandweni wangaphambi kwe-Columbian.
Ihlezi onqenqemeni loLwandlekazi i-Pacific, i-Miraflores ihlanganisa ngaphandle komthungo imvelo namasiko, iyenze ibe indawo engenakuqhathaniswa. Lesi sifunda siyisitobhi esibalulekile ohambweni lwakho olunqamula ePeru, sithuthukisa ukuvakasha kwakho e-Machu Picchu kanye nehlathi lase-Amazon ngobuhle balo obuhlukile.
Izwa Ubuhle Be-Colca Canyon
Zivumele ukhangwe indawo ekhangayo yase-Colca Canyon, indawo lapho ama-vistas azokukhipha khona umoya futhi ukundiza okumangalisayo kwama-condor kuzoheha inhliziyo yakho. Ukuma endaweni yokubuka ye-Cruz del Condor kunikeza isikhashana sokumangala njengoba ubukhulu be-canyon bunwebeka phambi kwakho. Ukubuka ama-condors endiza, etshuza, futhi etshuza ngomusa ongenamandla kuwubufakazi bezimanga zemvelo.
Ukuze uthole ukuxhumana okujulile nomlingo we-Colca Canyon, vakashela izindawo ezinhle ze-Amazon basin ngebhasi. Lo mzila unikeza amathuba amaningi okubona izinhlobonhlobo zezinto eziphilayo ezicebile zale ndawo, okuhlanganisa nezinhlobonhlobo zezitshalo nezilwane ezihlukile kulesi simiso sezinto eziphilayo.
Lapho ufika e-Colca Canyon, ubingelelwa ngethuba lokuhlola enye yezihosha ezijule kakhulu emhlabeni. Amawa ayo aphakeme kanye nezindawo ezimangelengele kuwumbono ongawubona. Umlando wale ndawo unothe njengokubukwa kwayo, namanxiwa asendulo afana neChoquequirao alinde ukutholwa. Ihlezi phezu kwegquma futhi izungezwe amahlathi aminyene nezintaba eziphakeme, i-Choquequirao idinga uhambo oluyinselele lwezinsuku ezimbili ukuze ifinyelele, kodwa umzamo uvuzwa ngemibono nemibono engenakuqhathaniswa yesikhathi esedlule.
I-Colca Canyon imane nje iyisiqalo salokho iPeru okufanele ikunikeze. Kusukela eLake Titicaca, ichibi eliphakeme kunawo wonke emhlabeni okuhamba kuzo imikhumbi elaziwa ngeziqhingi zalo ezintantayo ezihlukile, ukuya edolobheni elingokomlando laseCusco kanye nesakhiwo sodumo se-Machu Picchu, ePeru kugcwele amagugu emvelo nawomlando alindele ukubhekwa.
Gxila Esikweni Le-Cusco
Lapho ngijula enhliziyweni yesiko le-Cusco, ngazithola ngizungezwe ifa elijulile lombuso wama-Inca futhi ngimangazwe yizimpawu zendawo zomlando ezilandisa izinganekwane zalo mphakathi wasendulo. I-Cusco, engaphansi kwe-Andes yasePeru, iyindawo yalabo abazimisele ukuhlola umlando nokuzibandakanya namasiko endawo.
Phakathi kwezindawo ezikhangayo eziphezulu e-Cusco i-Sacsayhuamán, inkimbinkimbi ehlaba umxhwele eyisibonelo samakhono amangalisayo wobunjiniyela be-Inca. Izakhiwo zayo zamatshe ezinkulu kanye nomklamo wayo oyinkimbinkimbi kuwubufakazi bobuhlakani bazo bokwakha. Okuhlaba umxhwele ngokulinganayo iTwelve Angled Stone, elisenkabeni yedolobha. Lolu cezu lomsebenzi wamatshe, owaziwa ngokunemba nobungcweti bawo, lugqamisa amakhono athuthukile e-Inca.
Ukuzibandakanya nesiko likaCusco kusho ukuzulazula emigwaqweni ephilayo yamakoloni. Iphasi le-Boleto Turistico del Cusco linikeza ukufinyelela kumasayithi omlando nezindawo ezingomakhelwane njenge-San Blas, isikhungo sezingcweti zendawo ezibonisa imisebenzi yazo eyenziwe ngesandla. Lokhu kuhlola akunikezeli nje kuphela amazwibela amagugu anothile e-Cusco kodwa futhi kusekela umphakathi wendawo.
Ukuhlangabezana ne-Inti Raymi Festival, uma ukuvakasha kwakho kuhambisana nalo mcimbi, akunakulibaleka. Lokhu kuhlonishwa kwezinsuku eziyisishiyagalolunye kuNkulunkulu Welanga kuwukubonakaliswa okujulile kwemikhuba yendabuko, imibukiso enempilo, namasiko esikhathi eside, enikeza ukuqonda okuyingqayizivele ngezwe likamoya lama-Inca.
Ukuvakasha okunwetshiwe eCusco kufanele kubandakanye iSigodi Esingcwele. Le ndawo, enamanxiwa e-Inca kanye nemizana emihle, inikeza ukuqonda okujulile ngokubaluleka komlando walesi sifunda.
Ukwamukela isiko le-Cusco kunikeza uhambo olukubuyisela emuva ngesikhathi, okuvumela ukwazisa okujulile kwefa elimangalisayo lombuso we-Inca. Kuyisimemo sokuzicwilisa emkhathini othokozisayo waleli dolobha elinezintaba futhi uthole inqwaba yezimanga zalo.
