AREQUIPA
maintains a rather aloof attitude toward the rest of Peru. Most Arequipans feel themselves distinct, if not culturally superior, and resent the idea of the nation revolving around Lima, and with
El Misti
, the 5821-metre dormant volcano poised above, the place does have a rather legendary sort of appearance. But besides its widespread image as the country's second biggest and arguably, after Cusco, most attractive city, Arequipa has some very specific historical connotations for Peruvians.... read the whole Arequipa Travel Guides...

| Going Out : Good place to eat and drink |

| Cheap food can be found at Casa de Klaus at Calle Zela 207. "Klaus' House" is a happy place. Botas served in a three-litre boot-shaped mug.
