Otuzco: Overlooked Gem of the Andean Highlands

[asterisktom]

And I hope it stays overlooked for a while longer. Because it has the feel of the authentic highland Peru, not a town that only has a touristic facade of authenticity, like Cusco or Puno.

Otuzco is often overlooked, maybe, because it is not really on the way to the main cities or sites. But, from reading about it from various books and websites - and because we had reached a point where we had to backtrack anyway - it made good sense for us to try the town out.

That first church building looks like it is one earth tremor away from perdition.
I think I'd choose to attend the church in town.

"Ball moss growing on the overhead lines." Does this moss grow in North America?

Interesting Wiki article. Apparently some of these species are edible. Hmm.
