Peru
Peru is made up of three diverse terrains – the flat, desert-like coastal regions where the capital, Lima, is located, the mountain regions of the Andes where many Inca ruins are located, and the jungle areas in the region of Cuzco, the old capital of the Inca Empire. When it comes to visiting Peru, archaeological sites such as Machu Picchu are often high on people’s agenda. Eco-tourism ventures in Peru aim to distribute the gains of tourism throughout the poor local communities, and to improve awareness of conservation needs.
