NAZCA LINES
The Nazca Lines, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, are a series of ancient geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. The high, arid plateau lies about 400 k.m. south of Lima. The lines are shallow designs made in the ground by removing the reddish pebbles and uncovering the whitish/grayish ground beneath. Scholars believe the Nazca Lines were created by the Nazca culture between 400 and 650 AD. The hundreds of individual figures range in complexity from simple lines to stylized hummingbirds, spiders, monkeys, fish, sharks, orcas, lizards, among others. The largest figures are over 200 m. (660 ft.) big.
PARACAS NATIONAL RESERVEAND BALLESTAS ISLANDS
Paracas National Reserve is located on the south coast of Peru near the town of Pisco, famous for the eponymous alcoholic drink. The area is home to one of the largest sea-lion colonies in the world. Just offshore are the Ballestas Islands, an excellent place to see marine and bird life.
These islands, eroded into many caves and arches, provide shelter for seabirds and sea-lions. Although the islands fall just outside the Paracas National Reserve, they are protected by separate legislation. The islands are home to dozens of species of marine birds, including the Humboldt penguin, cormorants, boobies, and pelicans. Even condors have been known to visit. The shores are teeming with sea-lions and in the surrounding waters you might see dolphins and occasionally whales.
