Cheapest Flights to Peru
The land of gold and of the sun-worshipping Incas, Peru was
sixteenth-century Europe's major source of treasure, and once the
home of the largest empire in the world. Since then the riches of
the Incas have fuelled the European imagination, although in many
ways the country's real appeal lies in the sheer beauty of its
various landscapes, the abundance of its wildlife, and the strong
and colorful character of the people - newly recovered after a
period of political upheaval, from the 1980s until the early 1990s,
that was as bloody and unpredictable as any during the country's
history.
Above all, Peru is the most varied and exciting of all the South
American nations. Most people visualize the country as mountainous,
and are aware of the great Inca relics, but many are unaware of the
splendor of the immense desert coastline and the vast tracts of
tropical rainforest . Dividing these contrasting environments, chain
after chain of breathtaking peaks, the Andes , over seven thousand
meters high and four hundred kilometers wide in places, ripple the
entire length of the nation. So distinct are these three regions
that it is very difficult to generalize about the country, but one
thing for sure is that Peru offers a unique opportunity to
experience an incredibly wide range of spectacular scenery, a wealth
of heritage, and a vibrant living culture.
Always an exciting place to visit, and frantic as it sometimes
appears on the surface, the laid-back calmness of the Peruvian
temperament continues to underpin life even in the cities. Lima may
operate at a terrifying pace at times - the traffic, the
money-grabbers, the political situation - but there always seems to
be time to talk, for a ceviche, another drink & It's a country where
the resourceful and open traveler can break through complex barriers
of class, race, and language far more easily than most of its
inhabitants can; and also one in which the limousines and villas of
the elite remain little more than a thin veneer on a nation whose
roots lie firmly, and increasingly consciously, in its ethnic
traditions and the earth itself.
