NAOMI: Oh, Carlos, I'm sorry, I didn't remember you. How have you been?
CARLOS: Very well. Now I'm visiting Lambayeque. In a few days, I'm traveling to
Cusco.
NAOMI: That's very interesting! By the way, I'm thinking about taking a trip, but I
don't know where to go yet.
CARLOS: Then let me recommend the city of Cusco and Machu Picchu.
NAOMI: That sounds like a great idea! Can you tell me about Cusco, please?
CARLOS: Of course, give me a moment to get my laptop and I will show you
everything about Cusco.

CARLOS: In Cusco, you can visit many historical places. The Main Square is very
popular. You can also see Qorikancha, an ancient Inca temple.

guinea pig. Another delicious dish is pachamanca, a mix of meat and vegetables
cooked underground.
NAOMI: That sounds delicious! And the traditions?

Festival of the Sun. It is celebrated in June and is very colorful and fun.
NAOMI: I would love to see that! And what about Machu Picchu? Why is it so
special?
CARLOS: Machu Picchu is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. It is an
ancient Inca city located high in the mountains.

temples. The view from the top is incredible! You can also learn about the Inca
culture and history.

Picchu. From there, you take a bus to the entrance of Machu Picchu.

information!
