Reserva Nacional de Paracas

---

Druhou atrakciou vdaka ktorej je Pisco zname je blizka narodna rezervacia Paracas a to sme si samozrejme nemohli nechat ujst. Vacsinu rezervacie tvori pust a krasne opustene plaze kde zije vela vtakov, medzi najvzacnejsie patri chilsky plameniak. Rozhodli sme sa navstivit Lagunillas, ktore nasa kniha opisala ako krasne malebne miesto kam sa urcite oplati zajst. V skutocnosti to bolo zoskupenie restauracii cakajucich na turistov a par rybarov, okolie bolo nadherne ale nam sa to akosi znepacilo a rozhodli sme sa zmenit nas povodnie plan, tj prenocovat tu v stane a vratit sa domov. Nasli sme si volne miesta v odchadzajucom autobuse, ktory vsak nastastie este pred odchodom z reservy urobil malu zastavku pri ceste odkial sa dali pozorovat plameniaky. Tu nam padlo do oka dalsie miesto na stanovanie a nase plany sa opet zmenili - rozhodli sme sa ostat a mat celu plaz s plameniakmy len pre seba - vsetci ostatny turisti tam boli cez agentury a museli sa vratit do hotelov. Postavili sme si stan, urobili veceru a medzitym sa celkom zotmelo a my sa mohli priblizit k plameniakom na skutocne kratku vzdialenost a nerusene ich pozorovat.


The second most famouse atracion of Pisco is nearby nacional reservacion Paracas and of course we couldnt miss it. Most of the reservacion is formed by desert and by isolated beaches with abundance of birds, amongst them has a special place a chilean flamingo. We decided to visit Lagunillas, which our guidebook described as a beautiful, peaceful place which you shouldnt miss. In the reality it was a cluster of restaurants waiting for hungry tourists and few fishermen and although the surroudings was breathtaking we somehow couldnt feel it and change our orginal plan - spending a night here and decided to go back to Pisco. We managed to get free ride on a bus, which fortunatelly took a break to watch flamingoes before leaving the reserve. Here, we found out another place for camping and our plans suddenly changed again - we stay and have beach with flamengoes just for ourselves - rest of the tourists were with agencies and had to go back to their hotels. We put up our tent, cooked dinner and by that time it got dark enough to be able to come closer to the birds and watch them without disturbing them.
