Peru Travel Guide

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Few destinations have as much to offer visitors as Peru, an astonishingly varied country. Here you'll find panoramic mountain ranges, vast deserts, beautiful beaches and tropical jungle, not to mention fantastically rich history, archaeology, wildlife and enduring indigenous cultures.<br /> Images of the extraordinary remains of ancient civilisations will inevitably jump to mind. The Inca stronghold Machu Picchu is one of the most famous and photogenic archaeological sites in the world and the mysterious Nazca Lines boggle the mind, but there are hundreds of similarly fascinating and even older sites to discover.<br /> All are set in stunning landscapes, whether parched desert <em>costa</em> (coast), soaring <em>sierra</em> (mountains) or remote <em>selva</em> (rainforest) overflowing with wildlife. Such a diverse landscape generates diverse pleasures; the visitor can hike through snowy peaks one day, and relax on the beach the next; paddle a dugout through lowland rainforest or hop on a traditional <em>tortora</em> reed boat on some of the world's highest lakes.<br /> <div closure_uid_kbjf46="124">There is a wealth of sports and activities on offer, from sandboarding and surfing to extreme mountain biking and rafting. Add to these medicinal hot springs, mesmeric music, well-stocked museums, rich culture and uncommonly friendly people and you have a destination with something for everybody.</div><div closure_uid_kbjf46="124"><br /> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJlRvx_84tojquJyYVWM8am-kgRabJF3piIwMgq7P1YTdWIV4ylGQkXZejbjmFoVWfeR1B1nxFEQ9usQGyeVJNmPLgx86QPNCzrxtAxTUtP64Zsi3l6T735-oJU9Dt3iDzMv3sCUVDTQ/s1600/machu-picchu-peru.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJlRvx_84tojquJyYVWM8am-kgRabJF3piIwMgq7P1YTdWIV4ylGQkXZejbjmFoVWfeR1B1nxFEQ9usQGyeVJNmPLgx86QPNCzrxtAxTUtP64Zsi3l6T735-oJU9Dt3iDzMv3sCUVDTQ/s400/machu-picchu-peru.jpg" /></a></div><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVjiXdHSDPBoZCTsgDC6ZG8ILgPSS-beWmLNvbDdnhOSjL6hPuSQiC8KWQUW9BYxT_1aAluyo2p6q1qKxGrk-wmo2Dvddh65J0Ghy8LbfMofRB00H5t283XKekV99jDkuOAjIl58FyAQ/s1600/main_peru1_258175745_std.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVjiXdHSDPBoZCTsgDC6ZG8ILgPSS-beWmLNvbDdnhOSjL6hPuSQiC8KWQUW9BYxT_1aAluyo2p6q1qKxGrk-wmo2Dvddh65J0Ghy8LbfMofRB00H5t283XKekV99jDkuOAjIl58FyAQ/s400/main_peru1_258175745_std.jpg" /></a></div><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj39MW3Nb6-VIWShvsuJJaGlzuqEQRe6l9sHqWy1juF6dIeFGhcqQnF3xMjNLhm_jeybVBnoH9xQDjN-zdG-GuoCvtozhpU9WcifZ2UC95mFOudqtqLmFzf_BT2bhn4wRtrtS8k7M04A/s1600/peru.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj39MW3Nb6-VIWShvsuJJaGlzuqEQRe6l9sHqWy1juF6dIeFGhcqQnF3xMjNLhm_jeybVBnoH9xQDjN-zdG-GuoCvtozhpU9WcifZ2UC95mFOudqtqLmFzf_BT2bhn4wRtrtS8k7M04A/s400/peru.jpg" /></a></div><div closure_uid_kbjf46="124"><br /> </div></div>
