Arequipa

Arequipa is located in the southern Peru. It is surrounded by wild terrain, which feasts on active volcanoes, thermal springs, high-altitude deserts and the deepest canyon in the world.

Arequipa itself is Peru's second largest city, a beautiful such. A cone-shaped volcano rises majestically behind the cathedral on the main square but unfortunately, like most times, it was a bit too cloudy to fully enjoy it.

The pictures below will witness of a beautiful shady plaza surrounded by colonial buildings, a massive cathedral and... another picture that is slightly offside (but it was taken on the bus between Lima and Arequipa and therefore is included here).
