How do you feel about Peru?
Peru is located in western South America, facing the Pacific Ocean. Spanish is the main language, and indigenous languages such as Quechua are also spoken. The country is broadly divided into three regions: coastal desert, the Andean highlands, and the Amazon rainforest in the east. The climate varies greatly with altitude. Its ancient archaeological sites and diverse food culture, including potatoes, are widely known.
