Anchash is a beautiful spot in this world. while there, we went with friends to Huaraz and rented a van with a tour guide. Went everywhere, saw everything. Did some walking in the high altitudes. I would recommend not bending too much to look at the flowers that cover the floor, my head started spinning with so much bending. Loved the lakes, the animals, the people, their food. Food is very reasonably priced. Cheap! We saw Chavin the Huantar, ancient ruins pre-Inca. There is something that has stuck with me. Their main square is built with multiples of 7, they gazed the universe in Chavin the Huantar, there is something mystical about it. The scenery is so pleasant. I would go again.

In Ancash the skii as they have perpetual snow. I have never gone there but would like to go just to watch someday.
