Ica, Perú

The Huacachina

ICA

Ica is located in the south of Peru, it is one of the Departments that has one of the best climates in our Country, so it is possible to visit it any day of the year. Its inhabitants are mainly dedicated to agriculture, of which their agro-export crops such as grapes, asparagus, pecan nuts, cotton, mangoes, avocados, among many others, stand out.

This warm city also known as the cradle of Pisco, cataloged as our flagship drink, has abundant industrial vineyards, but also artisan ones, which continue to carry out the old distillation processes, which were used to obtain schnapps, wines and different types of Pisco .

Finally, if you are passionate about the history of the ancient inhabitants of the world, then this destination will surely enchant you, since this territory holds important findings of the Paracas, a pre-Inca culture that inhabited these lands in 6870 BC
