Peru is situated in the heart of South America, with five neighbouring countries at its borders. With Chile in the South, Brazil to the East, Bolivia to the Southeast and Colombia and Ecuador to the North, this leaves the Pacific to the West. Peru is a fascinating country in all respects, but is famously known for one of the Seven Wonders of the World...... Machu Picchu which was built by the Incas, above the city of Cusco. This sight alone is enough of a reason to start looking for cheap Peru flights, go to travelspec.com and let your adventure begin.
Peru is divided up in too three main areas:-
The coastal lowlands host the capital, Lima, which is the business and cultural centre of Peru with a population of around 9 million. There is a vast mix within Lima, of poor and rich societies, with huge mansions and secluded gardens built next to shanty towns, this occurs all around the city. Lima, every year has a massive influx of tourism due to its historical sites, museums, galleries and festivals. You will never be bored there!
The Andes with its snow-capped mountains and rugged scenery is a must see. The famous Machu Picchu is also found there, situated above the highest navigable lake in the world, Lake Titicaca at approx 3,812m. There are two ways to access Machu Picchu, either the lazy way by train from Cusco, or a challenging but rewarding 3 day hike up the Inca trail, your choice?!
Lastly the Amazon part of Peru is on the eastern slopes of the Andes, where mostly Indians are found. Here they farm, hunt and catch fish for a living. Since it is hot and humid only 12 percent of Peru’s population dwell there. There are few roads or access points to the area, therefore rivers are used as highways.
