WHERE TO INVENT, DREAM AND REFUGE IN THE ILLUSION – The journey brings wisdom. There is no better place to discover it than Peru

Peru, because it is absolutely mind boggling

Arequipa, the “White City,” is guaranteed to impress; you too will stand awestruck in the Plaza de Armas, the most grandiose in Peru. Towering over the plaza is the city cathedral, built from a type of white volcanic rock, common throughout the city center. For a different perspective of the city, head away towards Yanahuara, where you will find an eclectic mix of colonial era churches and elegant archways surrounding a leafy plaza. Trip memoriers? Calle Santa Catalina and nearby streets, where you can find several antiques shops, but not a Teodoro Nuñez Ureta mural (you need to enter Hotel Libertador).

If you wish to admire one of his murals, the campaign of Arequipa (1.70 x 7.00 meters, 1948), awaits you in the Hotel Libertador of Arequipa.

Teodoro Núñez Ureta http://www.teodoronunezureta.com/, Peruvian painter, was born in Arequipa in April 1912. As a child, he loved going to the fields to paint, so his teacher encouraged him when he saw his extraordinary portraiture and landscape.

A large dance floor and a cheerful local crowd. The most beautiful girls in Lima are to be found here. Tequila Rock it is a dance club, open every night, during all the year.

Reportage photography is seeing and telling through images.

He learned the photographic technique with a Japanese photographer, participating in his first art competition with a poster. Carlos Domínguez traveled to Argentina, working at a photography institute. In 1954, back in Peru, he worked as a graphic reporter in some newspapers, gaining notoriety for his audacity in getting the best images. He illustrated an infinite number of books.
