Peru´s Machu Picchu
Brazil´s statue of Christ the Redeemer

It was an excruciatingly hot day, but it was worth it to walk around this well restored site comprising the impressive pyramid, the haunting ball court (where losing captain was sacrificed to the gods), the conch building and a whole host of other beautiful and highly decorated structures.

Here are the photos.
