Nepal Airlines confuses Machu Picchu with Himalayas

A travel poster spotted in India reads: "Have You Seen Nepal?" but the mountains pictured surround Peru's own Machu Picchu, according to Peruvian mountain climber Ernesto Malaga.



The official news agency Andina reported that Malaga was in New Delhi when he saw the poster, meant to promote visits to Nepal's Himalayas, 16,000 kilometres (10,000 miles) in the opposite direction.

But Nepal Airlines, which does not fly to Machu Picchu, confused the land of the llama with the mountains of the Dalai Lama.
