Situated in the spectacular highlands of southern Peru, Arequipa, fondly referred to as the "White City", is a stunning blend of colonial and indigenous cultures. Known for its unique architecture featuring buildings constructed from sillar, a white volcanic stone, this UNESCO World Heritage site provides unparalleled views of the towering snow-capped volcanoes. With attractions like the awe-inspiring 16th-century Santa Catalina Monastery, the captivating Andean Sanctuary Museum which houses the famous Ice Maiden "Juanita", and succulent local cuisine dominated by spicy dishes and traditional picanterías, Arequipa leaves no stone unturned in proving itself as a remarkable destination for culture, history, and gastronomy enthusiasts.

I like Arequipa so much. It’s a beautiful city quite calm. In Arequipa, most of the places to visit are religious one like the Monastery of Santa Catalina ( really beautiful and interesting). Next to the city, you can find so many walks, next to volcanos and natural places like the Canyon of Colca.
