INTERNATIONAL COMPASS
The other face of Peru - Patrick Monney / Arely Vázquez

The other face of Peru

Discovering Cuzco and Machu Picchu is the classic Peruvian adventure, one that takes travelers across lake Titicaca, and through the figures in Nazca. I want to investigate another facet of a country rich in history, vestiges, and ecosystems; to know a world that is seldom spoken of, that surprised, fascinated and conquered me; one where the fabulous adobe-built pyramids rise inside the Amazon, and where the impressive northern coast is found.

Mochica´s Culture, an antique unknown jewel - Patrick Monney / Arely Vázquez

Mochica´s Culture, an antique unknown jewel

The most distinctive attraction here, though, is the Señor de Sipán museum, which displays the findings of this important Moche leader, in whose tomb are found elaborate jewelry made out of gold and copper, necklaces made of precious stones and shells and gold and turquoise earrings. It is a fascinating museum found in the city of Lambayeque, as it the Bruning Museum. We also had the opportunity to observe the colonial-era ruins of the city of Zaña, which was destroyed by earthquakes and floods, and where the remains of religious buildings still stand.

Crucero Aqua - Patrick Monney / Amura

Crucero Aqua

Like a king galloping through his lands, the Aqua travels along the tranquil waters of the Amazon  and Ucayali rivers as if it own them. It defies torrential rains, the mist and the unrelenting sun that it may glide along with the pink and gray dolphins, and observe all kinds of birds and exotic animals.
