Don´t miss the other pages I have
done on locations within Peru.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
I have put my tips directly where they belong (for that reason you will not find so much in this page on Perú).
Some examples are:
Trujillo
Iquitos (one of the cities in the Amazon jungle)
Departemento de Ancash (Yungay) (about the terrible landslide in 1970)
Lima (with some links to special pages within Lima)
Ruinas de Pachacamac (The second most important place in the Inca Empire)
Matucana (small village in the montains east of Lima)
Cusco
Machu Picchu of course
Oropesa(Tipón irrigation terraces)
-
The mystery with all the old cultures that have come and gone also make this country fascinating. The time span is as big as in Egypt (See coming tip in my Caral page). So far my aim has been to inform a little about common things and a bit more about things that are not so often seen.
