Welcome
to Peru, the archeological cultural jewel of Latin America.
From the Inca splendor of Machu Picchu, to the verdant jungle
waterways of the majestic Amazon River, to the rich artistic
expressions of its people. Peru has something for everyone.
Located
in the Pacific coast of South America, Peru offers visitors
a unique mix of historical and natural wonders, with modern
infrastructure and facilities, in a safe and prosperous environment.
For
hundred of years before the Incas conquered both sides of
the Andes, sophisticated civilizations flourished across Peru.
Now, thanks to local tourism development efforts and a number
of internationally funded archaeological projects, many of
those civilizations are being rediscovered, offering you an
opportunity to explore the less accessible wonders of Peru.
In
Peru our visitors will want to spend time in the Andes, where
Quechua natives dressed in bright, hand-woven garb still walk
their herds of llamas to graze on the mountainsides as they
have done for thousands of years. History buffs can explore
the pre-Columbian ruins and colonial Spanish architecture
that cover the country. Nature lovers will find an abundance
of flora and fauna in the depths of the virgin rain forest.
