Movies allow us to dream, explore the unexplored, and live unforgettable stories. Amongst the more important elements of the cinematic world are the scenes. Those beautiful places that we think are unreachable. However, walking through nature and getting away from the cities full of people, you’ll find spectacular scenes that’ll make you feel as though you’re in a movie.
In this article we’ll show you a list of some of the natural places that you can visit in Cusco. It’s worth remembering that to get to each of these places you’ll also need to live an adventure worthy of a great film while undertaking the hike or journey that gets you to them.
My dear traveling friend, if you are a lover of adventure, film, and contact with nature, enjoy the following recommendations.

HUMANTAY LAKE, MOLLEPATA-ANTA
If you’re looking for one of the best images with an impressive contrast in colors, you have to visit Humantay Lake. It’s one of the most breathtaking lakes in all of South America. Situated on the skirt of the snowy Humantay mountain, the landscape you’ll find here is fascinating thanks to the predominant turquoise-colored lake and the intense white backdrop of the snow-capped mountains that reflect in the water.

Escaping the city and in the middle of nature you’ll find Soraypampa. One of those places where you really get to appreciate the immensity of the universe. In this area, you’ll get some of most spectacular nocturnal images of the sky and can appreciate how brightly the stars shine, thanks to great amount of natural space in this zone.
Soraypampa is one of the places you can visit when you decide to take an alternative route to get to Machu Picchu.
