Cultural Peru

Tinqui lady, Peru (Amazonas Explorer)

In addition to landscapes and wildlife, Peru is steeped in history, tradition and culture. Undoubtedly and with good reason, the country’s most visited tourist attraction is the ancient Inca citadel of Machu Picchu, perched high in the cloud forest above the beautiful Urubamba valley. However, Peru’s store of archaeological treasures also includes ruins from pre-Inca civilisations, some dating as far back as 2000 BC. From the extraordinary Nasca lines in the south to the world’s largest adobe city at Chan Chán in the north, there are ample opportunities to immerse oneself in this country’s fascinating ancient history.
