Once the center of the Incan Empire, Peru is the perfect destination for discovering the ancient history of Latin America.
You can browse through handicrafts in Indian markets, discover the Spanish colonial heritage of Lima, and be amazed by the
mysterious Nazca Lines in the desert. But Peru’s biggest attractions are its spectacular Incan sites; the most famous of these is the
fabled Machu Picchu.
