Description
History & Society Land of forgotten peoples – Nazca, Mochica, Chimú, Ica, Chachapoyas –, dominated by the Incas, the “children of the Sun”; squandered by the Conquistadors and their thirst for gold; shaped by the Spanish crown; liberated by the hero of independence, José de San Martín; torn by coups d’état and border conflicts; wounded by the cruel whims of nature… This country, surrounded by the Andes and the Pacific, will reveal to you a people with a proud character, proud of its mixed history where indigenous, African and European cultures blend. Itineraries From the unique heritage of Cusco, the “navel of the world” for the Incas, to the sacred treasures of Lima, the capital founded by Francisco Pizzaro; from the majestic Machu Picchu, an emblematic Inca city perched on a dizzying promontory, to the mysterious Nazca Lines, gigantic geoglyphs traced in the desert; from the Parque Nacional del Manú, an ornithological sanctuary with 1,000 species of Amazonian birds, to the Islas de los Uros, totora islands drifting on the waters of Lake Titicaca… The countless facets of Peruvian nature will awaken your desire for exploration, your taste for adventure and your thirst for knowledge. Practical notebook Forty pages to know everything about formalities, transport, accommodation, culture, sports and leisure, etc.
