Arequipa - Peru’s best kept travel secret!

The city center of Arequipa, Peru is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city center is composed of baroque buildings derived from white volcanic sillar stone, giving Arequipa the nickname 'Ciudad Blanca' (White City). To add to the mystique of the city, it is surrounded by three impressive volcanoes (El Misti, Chachani and Pichu Pichu).

 

I made this photograph from a rooftop bar of the Plaza de Armas with the twin towers of the city cathedral and the mountain range rising in the background, while enjoying a refreshing Pisco Sour.

 

Happy New Year!
