From the awe-inspiring ruins of Machu Picchu to the bustling metropolis of Cuzco—the country's capital—from dense subequatorial rainforests to the snowy peaks of the Andes Mountains, this volume transports readers to a land with a tumultuous history and deeply rooted spiritual legacy. Armchair travelers explore ancient archaeological sites deep in the jungle, travel on the highest railway line in the world, and admire the meticulous construction of mysterious cities built of stone. With its accessible text and vibrant photographs, this book provides an excellent introduction to the fascinating country of Peru.
