It’s sometimes called “the white city” because of the beautiful buildings made from the local white “silla” volcanic rock. The architecture is beautiful in a very Spanish Colonial sort of way, it reminded me of some of the Andalusian hill towns we visited while in Spain.</p> <p><figure class="fr w-33"> <img src="https://www.waitwhatsthat.com/posts/colca-canyon/images/Andes-The-road.jpg" style="background-size: cover; background-image: url(data:image/webp;base64,UklGRjgAAABXRUJQVlA4ICwAAACQAQCdASoQAAwAAph8J6QAAuUJQAAA/pG064KtacHUdDuSEm6oYS8AwEAAAA==);" loading="lazy" srcset="https://www.waitwhatsthat.com/posts/colca-canyon/images/Andes-The-road_hu10363592624930895818.webp 320w, https://www.waitwhatsthat.com/posts/colca-canyon/images/Andes-The-road_hu11229970811209769030.webp 480w, https://www.waitwhatsthat.com/posts/colca-canyon/images/Andes-The-road_hu6010714588235616787.webp 768w" sizes="(min-width: 60em) calc(((100vw - 1rem - 1rem) * 2 / 3 - 2rem) * 1 / 3), calc((100vw - 1rem - 1rem) * 1 / 3)" data-idx="19" width=1024 height=746 alt=Altiplano&#32;highway > <figcaption>Altiplano highway</figcaption> </figure> I noticed our bus company offered a tour to “Colca Canyon, the second deepest canyon after the Grand Canyon” which sounded interesting but not compelling. Until I read the more detailed description. Colca Canyon is one of the places you can see Andean Condors. Ok, sign us up!</p>
