Overview of Arequipa
Named “Arequipa” by its original Incan founder, which translates to “let’s stay here”, i’s no wonder that the city has become a sought-after gem for many who visit Peru. As the second largest city in the country, its central plaza has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its breathtaking cultural and physical beauty. The city’s colonial architecture sparkles against the towering Andean volcanoes that clearly seen in background of nearly every photo and also the source of the bright white signature buildings.
