Bolívar Bridge & San Camilo
Arequipa´s Bolivar Bridge, also known as the Bridge of Iron, and San Camilo Market were both designed by Gustavo Eiffel in the 19th century. The Frenchmen would later go on to achieve fame for in his home country for the iconic Eiffel tower. Bolívar Bridge was designed for railroad traffic and shipped over in parts from Europe and assembled in Arequipa, where it is used for cars, buses and trucks. San Camilo, only a couple blocks from the Main Square, is Arequipa´s main market.
La Compañia
This 16th century mestizo-baroque church in Arequipa's Historical Center fuses indigenous American elements and pre-Columbian mythological characters with European motifs in one of South America´s premier masterpieces of colonial architecture. The white volcanic rock façade is intricately carved in low relief, almost as if the church were covered by a stone tapestry. Inside you can see carved wooden altars covered in gold-leaf, colorful murals Bernardo Bitti's masterpiece Virgin and Child.
Arequipa's Architecture
The historical center of Arequipa, known as the White City due to its famous buildings of pearl-like sillar rock from the city's surrounding volcanoes, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2000. The architecture of its colonial monuments integrates European and native building techniques and ornamentation in a style that has come to be known as mestizo-baroque. Make sure to stop by and witness how light plays off the intricately carved façades with European and pre-Columbian designs.
Majes River Valley
The Majes River Valley is an attractive fertile oasis of straw and adobe homes, rice paddies, vineyards, and orchards tucked away in the middle of the coastal desert between the Pacific Ocean and Andean foothills. The area is well-known for its freshwater shrimp, Piscos, dinosaur tracks, and a reputation for witchcraft localized in village of Huancarqui; here people accept food and drink with the left hand to avoid curses, and the love-sick flock to ask for spells and curses.
