   1. Hang out at the Main Square

   When in Arequipa, you can’t miss out on walking around the Main Square. It’s also called Plaza de Armas, and it’s perhaps one of the most stunning parts of the city. Everything here is made entirely using the white volcanic stone common in the region. The city isn’t called The White City for nothing! In the square, you can wander around or sit in the shade of the palm trees, feed pigeons, or make a wish at the Tuturutu Fountain which can be seen right at the center of the Plaza. The Basilica...

   2. Visit Colca Canyon

   One of the most impressive attractions in the area, the Colca Canyon is a must-visit for anyone who ventures to this part of the world. The views are second to none, especially on a sunny day when you can see so far into the distance. Colca Canyon is actually one of the deepest canyons in the world – in fact, it’s twice as deep as the Grand Canyon! While it is possible to visit and hike the Colca Canyon on your own, we don’t recommend it. You won’t really save much money and the hassle of org...

   3. Pop into a café

   After a busy morning walking around Arequipa, one of our favorite ways to relax (and get a boost of caffeine!) is by popping into one of the trendy cafes close to the Main Square. Mi Kcao Cafeis especially worth visiting, as it serves some of the best coffee and hot chocolate around. It’s all made from 100% organic, locally sourced ingredients, including from the owner’s family farm. This cafe is one of those hidden gems as it’s off the beaten path inside the Mango Hostel on a cozy rooftop pa...
