Volcan Misti, Peru, de 5.820msnm. Se ha convertido en uno de los mayores símbolos de Arequipa. Durante la época colonial la mayor parte de las casas fueron construidas con el sillar, piedra blanca formada con la deposición de cenizas y lapilli durante las erupciones piroclásticas del volcán. La última vez que el Misti demostró algún tipo de actividad relevante, como por ejemplo grandes fumarolas, fue en 1870.
Con su cono casi perfecto, el Misti se eleva a 5.820 m.s.n.m., entre los volcanes Chachani (6.055 m) y Pichu Pichu (5.665 m).

Many thanks for your views faves and lovely comments
so a lot of Misti's admirers want to know what she is looking at. She was sitting and I picked my camera, as I was trying to take a photo, she turned and looked as the wall. I was happy because she looked so cute. I realised that the sun was reflecting part of the camera on the wall and it was moving....

El Misti Volcano Arequipa 20221121
Misti, also known as Putina or Guagua Putina, is a stratovolcano of andesite, dacite, and rhyolite located in southern Peru near the city of Arequipa. With its seasonally snow-capped, symmetrical cone, Misti stands at 5,822 meters above sea level and lies between the Chachani massif (6,075 m) and Pichu Pichu volcano (5,669 m. Its last eruption was in 1985.
Misti has three concentric craters. Active fumaroles can be seen in the inner crater. Near the inner crater, six Inca mummies and rare Inca artifacts were found in 1998 during a month-long excavation directed by archaeologists Johan Reinhard and Jose Antonio Chavez. These findings are currently stored at the Museo de Santuarios Andinos in Arequipa.
A long history of eruptions from Misti and its neighboring volcanoes has caused the local soil to be extremely fertile, making the surrounding area one of the most agriculturally productive in Peru. Locals also make extensive use of a white volcanic rock called sillar, which is strong but easily workable. The city of Arequipa has a significant number of buildings constructed with sillar, resulting in the nickname la ciudad blanca ("the white city").

Located in southern Peru near the city of Arequipa, this volcano was an amazing sight walking around the old city streets. The last eruption was in 1985.
