Rainbow Mountain
Vinicunca
"Apu" was the name with which the wise Inca civilization called the mountains which were considered to have mystical powers. Although most of these majestic mountains were covered with snow, there was one that stood out for its colorfulness: the Vinicunca mountain, also known as “the rainbow mountain” in Peru.
This peculiar geographical feature - or natural work of art - belongs to the Ausangate snow-capped mountain, in the Vilcanota mountain range. Although its special beauty is directly proportional to the height at which it is located (the highest point reaches 17000 ft above sea level), thousands of people from all over the world dream of visiting it and come to Cusco to make their dreams come true.
