Peru is a melting pot of ancient cultural traditions which are as wide-ranging and varied as the types of landscapes within it. Why is Peru a particularly attractive location for Filipino travellers to explore, though? Firstly, there’s an amazing contradiction between the familiarity we feel in the cultural and historical similarities of Colombian colonization and incredibly unique and beautifully bewildering native traditions. Add to this that we can get up to 183 days free Visa on Arrival in Peru and it becomes a must-see country on every Filipino’s travel itinerary.
