Arequipa- Colca Valley


Located between the coast and the southern highlands of Peru, Arequipa is the land of great destinations with heights on snow-capped peaks such as Ampato (6,288 m), volcanos like Chachani ( 6,076 m ) and El Misti (5,825 m ).  Arequipa city is widely known as the Ciudad Blanca ( “White City” ) for its beautiful colonial homes, churches and monasteries constructed of a white ashlar that is unique to the zone. Historical Centre of the City of Arequipa, which was recognized by the Unesco as a cultural World Heritage Site, is surrounded by a beautiful countryside. Once you arrive you should visit the nearby Colca Valley and Colca Canyon. Arequipa is an ideal destination for those interested in Colonial architecture, culture, and outdoor natural beauty.

Reasons Why You Should Visit Peru - Part (3) out of 5 series

Welcome

Hello Readers, 
If this is your first time reading my series, I invite you to visit my Facebook page at LJRTravel@Facebook.com.

Reasons Why You should Visit Peru

To Meet the People 

It is always interesting meeting new people and to experience new cultures, but Peruvians make this even sweeter. Many Peruvians still have a direct link with their Inca ancestors, proudly conserving the Quechua and Aymara culture that is so important to Peru's past. Most people are hard workers, extremely polite, peaceful, helpful and curious about the foreign visitors. While getting acclimatized to the altitude I spent my first day wondering the streets of Cusco, immediately felt excited and in awe of the beauty this city had to offer.
