Peru is an extraordinary country with different cultures, politics, settlements, history and more. Peru’s beautiful, western coastline is bordered by the South
Pacific Ocean, featuring magnificent beaches. To the east, inland, are the
Andes with its deserts and valleys. The Highlands consist of the Andes and the
puna (flat terrain ranging from cold to almost freezing temperatures), or
Highland Plains, known for its many different crops due to its accommodating
climate.The eastern portion of Peru is known for its vast area of
thick, tropical jungle vegetation that surrounds the famous Amazon River.
This website was created to provide this, and a little more, information about Peru. This project is part of an assignment for GCU 114-World History for teachers.
Hello, My name is Marcela Torres, I am currently a elementary education major. I enjoy doing outdoor activities on my free time, I'm a dog lover and love all genres of music.
I chose this country particularly because one of my favorite artist was born there. I wanted to learn more about a southern country that included one of the seven wonders of the world. Peru is a beautiful country with beautiful arts, music, land and people.
