PERU.... Cusco's Costco




No, there isn’t a true Costco in this city, but there was such a large market with so many varied items, that we nicknamed it Costco. Most of it was held in an enclosed building that had been around a while, but even more spilled out into the surrounding streets. Here’s a few pictures for you to view:



regular cuts of meat.....



non-familiar cuts of meat which included everything else!!! from the cows and pigs



dried beans, corn and cereals.........



potato row (they grow many shapes and colors….there are said to be 2,800 varieties just in Peru)



seasonal herbs........



coffee and chocolates....



flowers....



fruits and veggies.......



If you become hungry or thirsty there are numerous lunch counters



and a chapel to pray your cares away.
