Nazca Lines
The mysterious pre-Incan culture of The Nazca etched many impressive geoglyphs on the high mountain plains. The purpose is unknown, but many believe them to be representations of constellations.

| "The Astronaut", one of the oddest of the many geoglyphs. |
|
|
| "The Hummingbird", the most beautiful and well-preserved of the lines. |

| A "durazno" tree from the nearby city of Ica. The fruit looks like a small peach. |
