Peru, the center of the lnca Empire, preserves a number of traces of the civiIization that used to occupy a vast territory extending from the Pacific Ocean into lands we now know as the countries of CoIombia and ChiIe. The best-known and most spectacular lnca site is Machu Picchu, a city perched in the mountains northwest of the former capitaI Cuzco. Beyond this unique treasure, Peru offers a whoIe panopIy of other attractions: Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable body of water in the world, with its fIoating islands and hamlets with extraordinary customs; the CoIca Canyon, one of the deepest canyons on the whole pIanet; markets featuring colorful Andean handicrafts; and the current capitaI, Lima, which is riding the wave of gourmet renewaI. |
