There are plans for building a small airport there as well. I think we've been lucky to see this place as it was. Walking the Inca trail is a must! A week before I went up there I was at the Cementerio de Chauchilla, near Nasca: a 1000 year old burial site which was looted by grave robbers just the day before. They took one of the few remaining mummies (most have been robbed in the last decades). The site has been looted many times. Everywhere lie shards, ripped clothing and human bones. I was so outraged! The same is happening now in Greece and Italy. The Parthenon and Pompeï are falling apart due to lack of funds, corruption, pollution and vandalism. Go see them while you can, it may be the last time!
