South American wonders

Peruvian cuisine is one of South America’s most surprising cuisines. The most commonly used ingredients are potatoes and fish. Many seafood restaurants in Lima are solely open for lunch, as local chefs only consider fish fresh enough to serve until then. The best-known seafood dish is ceviche, raw fish in lemon juice. And when you’ve eaten your fill, set off for the Nazca Lines. These mysterious sand drawings have remained preserved for centuries and can be best be viewed from the air.
