I personally feel that Arequipa is Peru’s most beautiful city, and with its white volcanic walls and picturesque colonial style I think few people would disagree with me. The Colca Canyon, a few hours drive from the city is most worth mention. Visitable year round – it is surrounded by volcanoes and watched over by hordes of giant Condors. Accommodation in the Canyon in superb with a number of eco-lodges offering varying levels of luxury; and all seem harmoniously tuned into the harmony and natural setting of the canyon. It’s high up there, serene, astoundingly beautiful, and one of my favorite places in South America. |
