The world is still wondering how a people who had not yet 
conceived of the wheel, managed to plan and build Machu 
Picchu, a city so advanced in architecture and road system. 
It is not within the power of words to convey the visual 
excitement of Peru. This is a country so varied that it makes you 
wonder how man ever learned to dominate it. With the ocean, 
the Andes and the Amazon competing for attention, the eye is 
forever engaged. No other combination of elements could 
exert such an hypnotic effect on the visitor 
In dramatic contrast with its incomparable antiquities is 
Peru's modern capital, stunning Lima. However traveled, the 
tourist will not have found more impressive hotels on either side 
of the ocean, nor enjoyed more interesting food so graciously 
served. 
It is often said that Lima is like a huge museum, with such 
religious and historical relics as the Cathedral on the Plaza de 
Armas where the remains of the conquistador. Pizarro. are dis- 
played in a glass coffin. Nearby is the church of San Francisco, 
with catacombs rivaling those of Rome and priceless art 
treasures by well known masters
