Peru is one of the larger countries (five times bigger than UK) in South America with a rich and varied culture and a wealth of natural resources.
Once the capital of the great Inca civilization, Cusco is also home to magnificent examples of colonial architecture. The stone foundations of Inca temples are still visible in the colonial buildings in and around the city. Many international tourists are drawn to Cusco for its close proximity to the famous Machu Picchu ruins and the Inca Trail. Due to the high elevation, it is cold at night and cool during the day year round. However, this can be a great excuse to seek out the many Indian markets selling the beautiful wool sweaters and textiles of Peru.
Peru�s capital, Lima, is a vibrant city whose grandeur may be faded but still lives on. Once the heart of Spain�s South American empire � christened by its founders as the �City of Kings� � modern Lima is a huge metropolis crammed with culture and a history that goes back to the Incas and beyond.
