Cute little Peruvian dolls

Today’s photo takes us high into the Andes in Peru. If you walk around the wonderful market in Pisac, a little town about one hour away from Cusco, you will see these amazing little dolls all over the place! They’re so beautifully crafted and colorful that you feel like getting every one of them! Andean attire is so colorful and yet keeps the people safe and warm . This is mostly due to a lot of layering and usage of really warm Alpaca wool.

High altitudes also result in flushed cheeks that add to the cute factor!
