Nazca's wonders and treasures await
Welcome to Nazca, a sun-kissed town on Peru's coast, approximately 450 kilometers south of Lima. Bathed in sunlight, Ica serves as the doorway to one of the world's most intriguing mysteries: the Nazca Lines.
The Nazca Lines are huge figures of humans and animals inscribed into the desert sands, covering 350 km2. Despite their magnificence, the origin of these mysterious geoglyphs remains a mystery. According to German mathematician Maria Reiche's theory, they may represent the world's largest astrological calendar, a prehistoric cosmic code inscribed into the earth.
The cemetery of Chauchillas is a testimony to the Nazca culture, which developed between 200 BC and 600 AD. The Nazca citizens, known for their extraordinary ceramics, elaborate three-dimensional crafting, and subterranean passages, left an unforgettable mark on Peru's geography.
Beyond cultural treasures, Nazca is home to the towering White Mountain, Cerro Blanco, which stands at 2080 meters and is the world's highest sand dune. This natural wonder serves as a playground for sandboarding lovers and offers thrilling buggy tours, bringing an adventurous spin to Nazca's historical riches.
Explore the mystery, history, and exciting terrain that Nazca Lines tours offer to curious tourists, along with thrilling activities like sandskiing and sandboard in Peru.
