Peru boasts an incredible cultural and natural diversity. Whether you want to visit Machu Picchu in the south or learn about the Moche culture in the north, fascinating ancient sites await to be discovered throughout the country. In biological terms, Peru is considered to be a megadiverse country. The Pacific coast, the Andes and the Amazon region are home to a varied fauna and flora and delight vistors with everchanging landscapes. Lima is a busy metropolis overlooking the Pacific ocean and represents the political, administrative and economic center of this Andean nation. The city has earned itself a well-deserved reputation as the gastronomic capital of South America.

      Dear Pedro,

      Muchas Gracias. The Peru directory is periodically updated, if you have specific recommendations for additional sites to be included, I will be happy to consider them for the next update (ideally English language, focus on information, useful for anyone trying to get an overview of what Peru has to offer). In any case, gradually there will be more coverage of any of the regions mentioned.

      Kind regards,

      Hendrik
