Peru is a South American country bordered by the Pacific Ocean, the Amazon Basin, and the Andes Mountains, making it one of the most geographically diverse destinations on the continent. It is world-famous for Machu Picchu, the ancient Incan citadel set high in the Andes, as well as the historic city of Cusco, the floating islands of Lake Titicaca, and the vast biodiversity of the Peruvian Amazon. Travelers are drawn here for trekking classic routes like the Inca Trail, exploring pre-Columbian ruins, wildlife watching, and immersing themselves in one of South America's richest indigenous cultures. Lima, the capital, has also earned a global reputation as a culinary powerhouse, adding another compelling reason to visit.
