橘色的城市，庫斯科

庫斯科是一個特別的城市。

它，是13世紀前印加帝國的首都，也是最保有印加歷史的地方。

雖然他們早已滅種。

儘管西班牙人統治這裡統治了幾百年，但這裡“看起來”還是非常的傳統。但其實，外觀雖然是印加留下來的建築，但裡面確是教堂的建築，比比皆是。

我覺得，大部份的人，來到秘魯的目的，不外乎都想要看看世界級的知名景點，比如說：馬丘比丘，納斯卡線，亞馬遜河(可能不是那麼多)……等，但像是上一篇所提到的阿雷奇帕，或是這篇所提到的庫斯可，都比較常被忽略的地方。

但我覺得，像庫斯科或者是阿雷奇帕這些地方，才真的是有特色。

我都叫庫斯科 “橘色的城市” 因為他的屋簷，乍看之下，都是橘色的瓦片，如果從高處往下看，橘海一片，非常壯觀。

The Orange City— Cuzco

Cuzco is a special city.

It was the capital city of Inca. and It is the place which still kept the most of Inca’s historic legacy in the world.

Although Inca people had been genocide.

Spanish people took 400-500 years to take care here, but this place still “looks like” traditional. maybe you can see the traditional Inca building for the outside looking, but if you go inside the building, It might be the church.

I think, the reason why people come here, is it the place for transit point to go visit Machu-Pichu. so People always ignore Cuzco. but I really think cuzco is the special place!! and it in unique— you can’t find out any place like it in the world.

I called Cuzco “The Orange City.” because their traditional roof are orange, if you see it at the higher place, you will see the orange sea in front of you. it is really really special, and unforgetable.

很多地方，只要你到了這裡附近，就可以感受的到這個地方。庫斯可就是這樣的地方，祕魯其他的城鎮，像庫斯可一樣有那麼多橘色瓦片的地方，也不多，這更可以顯現庫斯可的獨特。

除了橘海之外，這裡的印加古蹟也是很多。畢竟這裡曾經是印加人的首都，(因為印加族已經滅亡了)很多後來西班牙人所蓋的建築，都是直接從印加的設施直接改造的，像是庫斯可城內最有名的印加遺跡Qorikancha—太陽神殿，外表看起來是教堂，但裡面卻是印加的太陽神殿，很有特色的一個地方。

There are many places where has their own strong building style. if you near by those places,you don’t have to be in this place, but just near by, then you will feel you are around this area. Cuzco is one of the place that I just describt. You don’t see any other places which has that many orange roof in Peru. so I will say Cuzco is the unique place.

As I mentioned before. Cuzco still have a lot of Inca legacy. so you can also find out some in the city. the most famous place is called Qorikancha. it looks like church, but inside them, is the Inca place, it is also special place.

除了庫斯科城內之外，其實附近也有很多印加的遺跡，像是世界知名的Sacsayhuaman (Sexy Woman) 其實離庫斯可沒多遠，是一個讓我覺得很Cool的地方。可以去看看，但，如果你要去這些印加古跡，建議你可以去買包裝卷，這包裝卷一定要到某一個服務中心購買。而武器廣場內有很多當地的旅行社，包裝着一日遊的行程，但這些行程沒有包含門票，旅行社只出車跟導遊。門票還是得自己購買。但其實還是可以去參加看看，至少，會讓你對庫斯可與印加文化有些認識。

They are many Inca legacy around Cuzco city. like Sacsayhuaman(Sexy Woman). it is not far to go from Cuzco, but it is the cool place. I suggest you to go and visit. but, if you want to go visit the legacy around the Cuzco City, you have to buy the package ticket in the tourism center in Plaza de Armas. also, it has a lot of travel agency who sells one day tour. you can book the one day tour. but those travel agency don’t sell the package ticket. They only provide the bus and the guide, so you still need to buy your own. it is the special point.

如果你有時間，我倒是建議你多在武器廣場走走的，因為我覺得，武器廣場本身，就是一個很有特色的地方，雖然觀光客很多，但我覺得這個地方實在是太有特色了，很難掩蓋它的特色，而且，在小巷子裡面穿梭，讓我覺得跟九份有點相似，但身旁的景色卻又完全不一樣的感覺……。

If you have more time, I suggest you can go around Plaza de Armas. I think this place is very unique. it might have a lot of foreigners here. but I really feel this place is too special, and you can not just ignore this place. you can walk at the ally, then you will find out what’s their real life here.

在這裡，我也不免俗的，跟著大家一起得了高山症。第一次體驗高山症的感覺—

那是一種頭快要裂開，整個身體非常不舒服，多走一步路就好像要死掉的感覺。

打從我在從阿雷奇帕到庫斯科的路上，我就非常，非常的不舒服，雖然我們是坐在遊覽車第一個位置，風景最漂亮的位置，而當時的景色，真的是美到令人難以忘懷，但，我就是沒有辦法有體力去欣賞它，只要我一張開眼睛，集中精神，我就覺得頭好像要爆掉的感覺，最後，我還是只好閉起眼睛休息。

I also got the mountain sick here.

It was very uncomfortable, my hand was like to getting explore. and I was REALLY feel sick, It was feel like I would be die if I walked one more step.

I started feel sick when I was at the bus from Arequipa to Cuzca. my site was good, the first site, and there was the view point in front of me. and I did see some amazing view. but I just didn't have energy to see it, I was feel like explore if I open my eyes and focus on enjoy the view. so finally, I closed my eyes and took the rest.

雖然，你知道這些症狀，但你就是無法去控制它 ，吃甚麼預防高山症的藥都沒有效，整個就很想直接躺下，不願多動。

要命的是，我還得在這樣的地方待個三四天。

好在，過了兩天之後，我的身體漸漸適應了，後來到了馬丘比丘也沒有什麼問題。不過，如果你要問我到庫斯科有什麼感覺？？我應該只會告訴你，頭很痛的感覺吧！！

I known I got the mountain sick, but I couldn’t control it, even I ate the medicine to avoid it happen. but it was effect less, I was like to lay down for whole day.

and I still need to stay in this place for 3 or 4 more day.

I was feeling better after two days, and I didn’t feel sick again when I was in Machu-Pichu. so if you asked me how I feel Cuzco? I will tell you : Headache.
