I walked this route with mixed feelings...it would be awesome to have a rainforest right there since it's not that often you get to see a rainforest. But seeing all the people who live there, surely they can't uproot them??

What a fascinating museum! It focuses on all the different architectural styles of houses in the region and I found myself looking at the streets with a new eye after the visit here.

A very eerie and cool place! We went on a tour of all the vaults and small houses in this sealed off part of the city. I was a little scared at some points but it all adds to the fun really doesn't it?

Not for the faint of heart (or those shy of exercise) but this was my favourite spot in the whole city. The gardens and the amazing houses built on the steep slope, and the view you get when you make it to the top are all memorable.

AKA the City of the Dead this is where thousands of people live in the necropolis, making the tombs their living and working quarters. It's quite a sight to behold.
