Welcome Readers,

Have you had a chance to experience the immense variety of flora and fauna to be had in Peru’s Amazon? If not, let these photos and a brief description inspire you. 

Iquitos, is the largest metropolis in the Peruvian Amazon, and the sixth most populous city of Peru, an ideal place for those who love nature, biodiversity tourism, and those who desire an intimate contact with the Amazon rainforest. From Iquitos City you will be able take a tour, and stay in lodges located deep in the jungle.  For the more adventurous, you can leave from the protected natural areas at Pacaya Samiria National Reserve  or Allpahuayo Mishana National Reserve. Both locations offer exuberant flora and fauna. You could also take a cruise on the Amazon River, considered to be one of the new 7 wonders of Nature.  

Among the surrounding provinces, Iquitos offers diversity of dishes, culture, native crops and fruitage, that could be used for many things other than juice. The altitude is much lower and the variety of flora and fauna is different from those of the “Ceja de Selva “ translation (rim of the Jungle).  To the World Travelers, the Amazon will not fail your expectations. 



Did you know? The Grand Canyon may be vast, but the Cotahuasi Canyon near the city of Arequipa is actually the deepest canyon in the world with a depth of nearly      3, 535 meters, it is twice the depth of the Grand Canyon!
