Beschreibung
Three worlds in one country – this could describe Peru, located in the territory of the former Inca Empire, the largest state entity of pre-Columbian America. Arid plains with fertile valleys by the cool Pacific to the west, sparsely populated tropical lowlands in the Amazon to the east, and in the middle, towering mountains with majestic volcanoes. Jitka accompanies her travel experiences with beautiful personal photographs. How did she cope with the high altitudes? Why did soldiers once ban the captivating melody of El cóndor pasa? How challenging is it to travel by Peruvian railway? Is it possible to make such a mundane task as municipal waste collection more enjoyable? And why does the Peruvian president almost never take off his iconic hat?
