5 Things to do in Arequipa, Peru!

While in Arequipa’s central plaza filled with colonial architecture, these Peruvians are getting ready to take a group photo in front of the fountains of La Plaza de Armas.

Arequipa is Peru’s second largest city and between it being a UNESCO World Heritage site, it’s lower breathable altitude, and it’s comfortable, relatively stable climate all year, it’s a nice city to visit! There are not as many tourists as in Cusco so you may feel a little less bombarded and relaxed while exploring this city, but it is becoming more popular every year especially because of it’s close proximity to Colca Canyon. Therefore more adventures are visiting the area to explore the canyon.
