Peru is a country with a colorful past. High on the Andean Mountains, the Inca Civilization once thrived during the pre-Columbian era from 1438 to 1533. Cusco was the capital when the Spaniards invaded and conquered Peru. The glorious past of Peru has often reflected its shadows on the Sacred Valley and the City of Cusco monuments. Cusco, the gateway of the famous Inca ruins of Machu Picchu, is the UNESCO heritage site amid the unparalleled natural beauty of the Andean Mountains.
Join Amitabha Gangopadhyay as he takes you on this beautiful journey to Peru, where he explores the landmark impressions of this beautiful country with Suman. He walks you through the modern city of Lima and its rich colonial past, its beautiful Pacific coastline, treasures from the Inca Civilization preserved in the Larco Museum, the famous Huaca Pucllana in Miraflores and the famous Nazca lines over the stony mountains that have intrigued human curiosity over the years.
Amitabha brings you these invaluable treasures in every page of Inca land Peru through his brilliant writing and beautiful photography.
