Places To Visit In Peru

Sooner or later, anyone who wants to be called a world traveler must visit Peru in order to be worthy of such a lofty title. For many, Peru conjures up images of hidden ancient ruins, breathtaking mountain views, and secluded jungle villages. Peru is all this and much more! While visiting other countries in South America is always appealing, a traveler could easily stay within this single country and never see all there is to see. What are some places to visit in Peru?

Almost all travelers to Peru start in Lima. This capital city of Peru is home to the Jorge Chavez International Airport. While some find the city to be very dusty and dirty, there is much to do here and the weather won't interfere with your plans since it never rains in Lima. 

Don't miss the Magic Water Tour- a park of beautiful water fountains located in downtown Lima. Boasting 13 fountains, the Magic Water Tour holds the world record for being the largest fountain complex in the world. Many of these fountains are interactive and very fun for young and old alike. There is a tunnel of water which you can pass through. There is also an automated walk-thru fountain that many children in raincoats frequent. Be sure to go at night to see the fantastic light shows that are put on several times a night.

 For those who like winter sports, a trip north to the city of Huaraz would be most rewarding. This city sits at an elevation of 10,013 feet in the mountains of the Cordillera Blanca. It is home to Huascarán, a snowy mountain considered to be the highest in all the tropics, peaking at 22,205 feet. Popular winter sports to experience here are climbing, snowboarding, and hiking. This truly is a beautiful area of Peru.

If you are into shopping for locally made earrings and hand-woven purses, Cajamarca is the place to visit. For those who suffer from altitude sickness, Cajamarca rests at a more reasonable 8,900 feet above sea level. Surrounding the hill of Santa Apolonia in Cajamarca, you will be able to buy beautiful multi-colored purses for as little as $2.50. If you are looking for nice but inexpensive souvenirs, Cajamarca is the place to visit.

 Close by Cajamarca are the ancient ruins of Cumbe Mayo. These ruins are not as frequently visited by tourists as many of the others in Peru, but they are truly fascinating. The landscape is other-worldly and like no other. Archaeologists still don't completely understand the ancient civilization that lived among these ruins.

Finally, no trip to Peru is complete without visiting its greatest tourist attraction: Machu Picchu. It is often called "The Lost City of the Incas." This wonder of the modern world was truly one of the most interesting discoveries of the 20th Century. With nearly 2,500 tourists visiting Machu Picchu every day, you don't want to miss seeing this place. These are just a few places to visit in Peru.

Love to travel?

Travel has many points of views. It is probably not as fascinating to those who travel on business for obvious reasons but to those of us who travel on pleasure, we definitely look forward to them. You may be on your way to a nice destination now!

   Where to go? What to take? Who to go with? Yes there are a lot of factors on planning a good trip unless you are really spontaneous and feel like "winging" it.

   Most people, if you are like me, like to plan things ahead of time. For instance: Where to go? Feel like browsing the states? The usual comes to mind: New York City, Miami, Las Vegas, Los Angeles,Or Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, you will find the most beautiful natural areas, in our Blog.

 How about camping? Oklahoma offers pretty nice camping sites near their lakes. Try Broken Bow or Beavers Ben sometime. Word to wise, avoid mosquito/tornado season. Eesh!

   If you are an adventurer that needs real challenges and surprises there is always the mid-west. The grand canyon can have the most intense rafting conditions on many rivers. Colorado might surprise you too with numerous activities such as rafting, horse back riding, skiing, snow boarding and for those shopping lovers they offer many shopping centers all over.

   Not an outdoorsy person but still like thrills? Plenty of amusement parks all over the states can accommodate to that. From Cedar point in Sandusky, Ohio down to Busch Gardens in Tampa, Florida these roller coasters will flip you in ways you did not know were possible. 

Last place you might think of for this type of entertainment is in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Stratosphere Hotel has few thrilling rides right on its rooftop. Just a little over a thousand feet high, no biggie. 

   Also, if you are like me and would never think of skydiving, there is actually a simulated one you can try out in Las Vegas too. Indoor skydiving is a safer alternative if you will. You lay on the floor, turn on the high fan under you and hope the power doesn't go off mid-air: kidding!

   If you however are considering a real calm vacation and just want to kick back and relax you have plenty of options as well. If you like snow Colorado can help with that.

Take A Trip To Panama

Do you like to travel? Traveling can be a fun and exciting hobby that broadens your knowledge and understanding of the world like no other. You have the opportunity to meet new people, observe different cultures, and try delicious new foods. The country of Panama is no exception.

Panama has much to offer for those looking to explore new horizons. The first and foremost attraction Panama has to offer is the Panama Canal. This fascinating tourist attraction brings people from all over the world to see this wonder in action. You can actually watch giant ships pass through the canal and learn all about the history of this modern marvel.

While in Panama City itself, you can also visit the Causeway Amador. If you drive the length of this stretch, you will find many shops selling the ever-famous made-in-Ecuador "Panama Hat" at bargain prices. Or you can buy other native Guna-made artisan products for your home.

If you find the heat in Panama City to be unbearable, make your way on up to the Chiriqui Highlands for an altogether different experience. There are several beautiful and bustling towns nestled in the mountains of the Chiriqui province. Many of these places boast a sizable population of ex-patriots, so you will find many places that cater to the American way of living.

_Two of the most popular stops are Boquete and Volcan. Both of these towns average temperatures in the 60's and 70's. Boquete even has a library with hundreds of books in both Spanish and English.  It also hosts an annual Fair of Flowers and Coffee in January. This fair showcases hundreds of varieties of Panama's most beautiful flowers. Plus, many local coffee companies turn out so you can sample their coffee. Be sure to get a frozen strawberry treat made from strawberries grown in nearby Cerro Punta.

Volcan is aptly named for its biggest tourist attraction: Volcan Baru. Volcan Baru is is a dormant volcano which also happens to be the highest point in Panama. Hundreds of people a year climb this volcano, although the best month to climb it is in February. This is because other months are too wet and dangerous to climb to the top of the 11,398 feet (3,474 meters) peak.

If you choose to make this exciting trip, there are two sides to climb up from. One is in Volcan and the other is from Boquete. The Volcan side is small trails through the forests of the mountain. This is a grueling 8 hour trek. If you want to take it a little easier, you can pay to go up most of the Boquete side in a vehicle. Either way, you must be prepared with plenty of water for the trip and if you are staying over night, a tent and lots of warm clothes. It is literally freezing on the top of the volcano.

As you can see, Panama is a great choice for anyone looking for a fabulous vacation.
