Peru - Major Cities and Regions Overview
Home » Peru » Peru Major Cities and Regions » Peru - Major Cities and Regions OverviewThis Inca region is an area of rich history and natural wonders and when you visit, you won’t fail to be amazed. Peru is South America’s third largest country which in terms of geography, is split into three distinct natural regions which are the Andes, the Lowlands and the Coastal Zone.
It will prove most common for you to visit some of the western coastal areas or to the east one of the many plains that leads to endless tropical rainforests with many species of animals in their natural habitat.
You need to decide where you want to visit and where because each of the three regions have a better time to visit due to the extreme change in weather conditions across the land. Always be certain to familiarise yourself with the rainfall and hours of sunshine for each area because it will change quite rapidly over the months.
Accommodation is quite good value for money and it will vary widely on the where you stay but a basic hotel in Cusco – which can be found in the centre of many Inca monuments and natural views can range between $30 - $45 per person, per night and the charges are usually the same throughout the whole year. A lower tariff may be charged in the colder months with some accommodation providers but to be sure, ask when making a booking.
