Arequipa

Arequipa, known with the name of 'La Ciudad Blanca' (the white city) from the color of the stone used for its ancient buildings, is an old city built in the 1540. On the back of the city it is possible to see the high vulcan Misti. The center of Arequipa keeps an ancient magic, with old churches and monuments; Arequipa is incredible in the night, when the moon give lights to the white stones of its buildings.
