RUTA A MACHU PICCHU DESDE CUZCO | PERU #7

I came to a textile factory for a day tour that I will do here to Ollantaytambo. And he hired a private doctor so he could go more quietly, visiting all these points And the first stop is a textile shop that's very good, which I recommend. What's the name of this textile factory? The Tokapo It's the Tokapo textile factory, which if you pass by here is highly recommended Because they do everything very... everything handmade, everything with natural products Everything that is colored is made from natural pigments of plants. I'll show you how in these pictures. There are some alpacas up there. And then if you want to buy clothes made by them, all kinds of articles, souvenirs, etc. This is the best place, it's very good price. And on top of that, you know it's all done very naturally. Muy buenos días, my name is... Hello. How are you? What is it? Here I will show you what is the natural detergent of the Incas This is called, this root, walking, two, three hours walking to the hill we got This is a natural detergent, El Champú. This example is of a sheep that has never been bathed since the moment it was born. This is gonna be your first bath. What is baby alpaca, adult alpaca, we wash it like this, the fiber With this champagne And it is white. Yes, before, after, right? Yeah, yeah, what a difference This is for example the eucalyptus family. Chilcaliz, green color we have the color O sea, that's natural, right? Yes, we make it with the plants, with the herbs, right? Here for example we with chicha morada consume Yes, yes, he tried, yes Yes, the grain. O sea, the purple chicha comes from this corn Yeah, that's for example here, then the grains we're saving for the girl lives And the pipe we used to get the color. This is taking several minutes. Now I 'll add a little cochinilla to differentiate it. You're going to show off, aren't you? We make more but for now I'm making little, right? To demonstrate Here for example is the color, isn't it? I see. Here we need what is the iragua, what is the cariwa And this is our most important tool What could this little thing be? Can you guess? Is that alpaca? - No, not at all. Is it not a human? It's human. Is it human? - Yes, I know. Seriously? Yes, because he came to visit us and he didn't cooperate We have transcribed it, we have sacrificed it, right? I see just No, it is a joke. It's alpaca, I guess. You can give him so much to eat Here is a rodent here national peruano Is it from the Cusco area only and this area? Is it from all over the country? No, from here in the area of Chirucho, Curpos, Criste, in the festivities This is the one, which in Spain is known as conejillo de indias or así. I'm now in the salt works of Maras. It's a giant salt mine that's here inside a valley. You're the one who's been trying to sell salt to the whole area. It costs 10 soles, about 2 euros and a half more or less. Vale, you're the one who's been entertaining me a little bit. Before the salt was not used for anything O sea, this salinera was not used for anything. But now the salt here is used for consumption, for commercial consumption. And it's supposed to be the best quality salt in all of Peru. For the good that is preserved in this area Todo el agua is going cruzando, going touching todo la sal So I should be pretty salty on the subject. And it's pretty hot up there. And it really is mega salad. Remember a little of the Dead Sea of Jordan That's right, it's like passing your hand through the water and as soon as it dries, your hand becomes all white. To reach Llanta y Tambo My conductor has chosen an alternative route. That's what I was doing before, following the mountain. It's much more complicated because it's just a very narrow lane. Bajando la montaña, rodeándola (the mountain is going up, the mountain is going down) And there are many moments in which, God, that's how you fall now Well, let's not talk about it. But the truth is that it is much more beautiful to see O sea, the landscapes are incredible todo el rato Las montañas rojas, is a pasada And curiously here, you're engaging the highway There are some hotels, I'd seen them but didn't know they were here. What are those hotels capsule They're against the mountain, they're against the rock. And then you sleep there as if you were hooked, hanged And to get there you have to go climbing. From here, from the base. You're making escalada hasta las capsulas. You're not going to make it. And you have like a few little rests along the way. Y ya sleep there upstairs
