Peru, the cradle of ancient cultures, continues
to amaze the world with its stunning landscapes and new archeological
discoveries. Here, you can still hear whispers of the mysterious Incan
civilization
preserved in traditional arts and languages, and explore some of the most
remote
and exotic locales in the world. Peru continually draws visitors from
all over the
world who come to see the famous ruins at Machu Picchu and the Inca Trail.
The
third largest nation in South America, Peru also offers a diversity of
geography and
climate, varying from the hot and humid jungle to snow-packed Andean peaks.
Peru's wealth of both culture and nature promises a spectacular venue
for anyone
interested in the traditional splendors of Latin America.
This country has one of the richest indigenous populations in South America,
with 45
percent native descendents of the Incas. There are also about 100 tribes
that dwell in
the rainforests, almost completely isolated from modern civilization.
Today, the way of
ancient Peruvian culture is preserved in almost every aspect of modern
life: farming,
literature, architecture, handcrafts, music, folklore, and art.
