Ossaury, Peru


This is the post card that I bought after touring the building and seeing the Ossuary well, I didn't qutie get why they decorated it like this but it's a very big well. If you look in the bottom right corner of the post card you can see the hallway that I was talking about where it's a row of graves, they are filled with just bones of all different shapes and sizes and it's a very long hallway.


This is a close up of the middle of the well above, it's really quite large and as you can see there is no bottom of the well in the picture it's actually more bones below. In the bottom right of the postcard you can see the building itself, it's very beautiful inside the building with wood floors and painted ceilings, it's only not pretty when you go into the catacombs below the building.
