Huascaran National Park includes the whole Cordillera Blanca which is 4000m above sea level and deserving of the Unesco World Biosphere Reserve status. Visiting this part of Central Peru is a dream-come-true for nature and archeology lovers.
The famous Nazca lines, located in the South West of the country, are a set of gigantic ancient zoomorphic and geometric figures, some simple and others more complex. All images are mapped onto the surface and can be seen in their entirety only from the air. There are more questions than answers about how between 200BC and 700BC, inhabitants of this desert were able to draw such immense images on the ground. Close by is located Cerro Blanco, which, at a height of 2078m is the highest dune in the world, an ideal destination for sand boarding and paragliding in Peru.
Peru is a country with a strong indigenous tradition that can be seen in the colorful markets where each item can be viewed as a small masterpiece. Pisac, a small town located in the Sacred Valley, is one of the best ways to see how the Quechua tradition is experienced today.

At the same time, Pisac is an ideal starting point for tour of Peru, visiting archaeological sites, breathtaking scenery and the local flora and fauna.
Travel to Peru is discovering new tastes and scents, unique music, hallowed stories and congenial people. Ancient history and modern life run together in a poetic and captivating way, resulting in a beautiful country hard to leave behind.

.While all of the above is true they have left out one of Peru's great attractions - the Amazon River. The Peruvian Amazon is home to incredible wildlife, beautiful rivers, a fascinating culture and warm and friendly people. It amazes me that the person who wrote this could leave out the Amazon. Sad.
