Arequipa is connected to the rest of Peru by many airlines offering regular flights. Arequipa is located in the point where the central Andean area and the Andean south center are divided. The valleys to the south of the Sihuas Rivers are incorporated into this area. Covering an area of 63,345 sq km, it is home to over 750,000 inhabitants.
Arequipa is called "the White City", due to the many structures built using the white sillar stone. Arequipa is a popular tourist destination due to its diverse architecture such as: temples, convents, monasteries and the very famous Santa Catalina Convent, which dates back to 1580.
About half an hour of flight to the North-East are the cities of Cusco and Machu Picchu. Cusco is considered to be the archaeological capital of America. It was nicknamed the "World's Navel" by the Incas. It is now the first cultural center of Peru and has been proclaimed as "Humankind's Cultural Heritage" by UNESCO. Located at a distance of 75 miles (120 Km.) from Cusco, Machu Picchu is one of the construction treasures left by the Incas.
The rainy season is from December to March. Spring (September) highs over around 20°C, lows around 10°C, but may occasionally climb to 28°C.
