Everyone knows Peru for hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and seeing the colonial city of Cusco, but there is more to this stunningly beautiful country that hosts both the Amazon and the Andes. For sure, experiencing Machu Picchu is a must for first time visitors, and many equate a trek here to a holy type experience, but beyond this sacred site, you’ll find the capital city of Lima, on the Pacific Coast, hosts a preserved colonial center and bustling metropolis energy that makes an interesting contrast to Machu Picchu.
