pisco and paracas
Pisco is the famous name of the Peruvian
brandy produced from white muscat
grapes in this region and also the name of
this interesting city. It is located 235km
south of Lima and is a very important
port that generally is used as a base to see
the abundant wildlife of the Islas Ballestas
and Península de Paracas.
This area is rich of historical and
archaeological remains, having hosted
one of the most highly developed pre-
Inca Civilizations – the Paracas culture
from 900 BC until AD 200, after which
the nearby town of Paracas is named.
nazca
It’s no possible to say the word ‘Nazca’ without following it immediately with the word “figures or lines" but
no only for the ancient geometric lines that crisscross the Nazca desert, but also for the enigmatic animal
geoglyphs that accompany them. Like all great unexplained mysteries, these great work on the pampa of
Nazca, thought to have been made by a pre-Inca civilization between 450–600 AD, attract a variable fan
base of archaeologists, scientists, New Age mystics, curious tourists, Peruvians discovers; etc. Who and for
what reason these great geoglyphs were made? None right answer until now was accepted. The answers
are often as much wild speculation.
Documented for the first time by North American scientist Paul Kosok in 1939 and studied for the German
mathematician, archaeologist, Marie Reiche; Nazca Lines was declared a Unesco World Heritage site in
1994, and today are the south coast’s biggest tourist attraction.
