Les lignes de Nazca, situées au sud du Pérou, sont un ensemble de géoglyphes précolombiens qui s'étendent dans les sables du désert. Elles couvrent une superficie de près de 1 000 kilomètres carrés et comptent environ 300 figures différentes, représentant des animaux et des plantes. Elles sont composées de plus de 10 000 lignes, certaines mesurant 30 mètres de large et plus de 9 kilomètres de long. Elles sont plus faciles à observer depuis les airs ou les montagnes avoisinantes.

Bodega San Nicolás, the producer of “1615” pisco, uses its own vineyards to get its musts or grape juices. Their vineyards have their own history as they are located on the same ancient hacienda belonging to the Jesuits who were in charge of the bodegas and where the first piscos were distilled in the XVII's century.

Huacachina dates back centuries, when it was a resting place for travelers crossing the desert. Over time, its fame grew, and it became a premier tourist destination. Today, it combines the tranquility of its natural surroundings with a vibrant array of activities for adventure lovers.
