San Martin
Located in the northern high jungle of Peru, this region is ideal for nature lovers, hikers and bird watchers in search of new landscapes. Imagine waterfalls and cascades falling on natural stones and forming pools in the middle of an intense green landscape.
Cusco
This is the most famous region of Peru. The ancient city of Cusco was organized and built in the shape of a puma, with the head located in Saqsaywaman, a military complex built with stones as large as 5 meters that weigh around 120 tons.
Nowadays, the city center's architecture is predominantly Colonial Spanish built on top of the stony old city and the result is strikingly beautiful.
In the Sacred Valley of Urubamba, one of the largest salt extraction centers of pre-Hispanic origin, Maras, is nested in steep valley slopes, a white strip of 5,000 salt ponds staggered down in terraces.
Machu Picchu is one of the most amazing New 7 Wonders of the World. This place may be the best example that mankind can build a gigantic stony complex in the middle of a heavenly landscape while respecting the natural harmony and the result is really moving.
