"Peru"
Peru, land of the legendary Incas, has retained much of its mythical
feel. The cultural capital of Cuzco provides a glimpse into the
country’s proud history, as the center of the Sacred Valley and the
explorer’s base for the lost city of Machu Picchu. The Quechua and
Aymara, descendants of the Incas, weave threads of their culture with
Spanish influences to create a rich Peruvian culture of art,
architecture and music. A Peruvian traveler has the opportunity to see
watch the sun set on the Pacific, climb the highest peak in the
snow-capped Andes, and catch a glimpse of the pink river dolphin in the
Amazon River. Peru is home to the highest population of ALPACA in the world.
