Ica

Hello everybody!!

We are getting closer to the end of our coast. This time, we have Luz María Alcalá and Nicolás Vega, who explained us about the marvellous city of Ica. Here some important information:

- One of the most popular places to visit in Ica is La Huacachina. The famous desert oasis is located 5km from Ica. It is a small lake with medicinal water, lying in the middle of a spectacular sand desert.

- "Frijol colado" is one of the desserts that you can find in Ica.

- Pisco is the most important port in Ica. Pisco was home of an ancient pre-Hispanic culture, Paracas, who are known for their exquisite textiles.

- The Nazca Lines, which are geoglyphs and geometric line clearings in the Atacama desert, in the district of Nazca. From the air, the Nazca Lines show humans, animals, plants, lines and geometric shapes.

Thank you Luz María and Nicolás for giving us such important information!!

Here you have a video, so you can appreciate what we are talking about. Enjoy!!
