Central-Highlands Peru


While most travelers to Peru will make a beeline for either Cuzco or the Amazon Basin, the truly curious, adventure spirited and time rich will take a slow, meandering and exploratory look at one of the country’s lesser-known regions – the central Peruvian Andes. While they possess no world-famous sights or ruins or even high-tech tourist centers, the central highlands do offer a glimpse of Peru at it’s most normal. This is the heartland of Andean Peru – its soul, one might say. A place where the Inca spirit lives on in an everyday way.

In this land of bare rocky mountains you’ll find sweeping altiplano (Andean plateau) vistas studded with lakes, glaciers and tiny villages that live as they have done for aeons. You’ll find valleys large and small where people live off the land and off their handicrafts – places where art is not just for tourists with large budgets, but for people of lesser means for whom art is part of their everyday life.
