Peru: Journeys to the Golden
Cities |
|
Peru… Legendary country of the fabulous Cities of Gold that attracted
adventurers and the Spanish conquistadors. Even violated and stripped of its
treasures, Peru, with its larger than life landscapes, its dizzying peaks
and the vestiges of mysterious cities, remains a fascinating land, still
inhabited by the spirit of the Incas and their amazing rites.
This title is from the collection THE GREATEST JOURNEYS ON EARTH. To buy the
entire set of thirteen DVDs or videocassettes in the collection, or to buy

This collection of thirteen one-hour documentaries suggests unusual
itineraries through some of the most beautiful places on earth. Each journey
takes the viewer beyond the usual commonplace clichés of travel
destinations. Instead, through geography, history, architecture, culture,
celebrations, leisure activities and gastronomy, viewers are able to
appreciate the art of living in each destination. With interviews, visits,
lavish meals and celebrations, viewers become aware of the richly-textured
history of these great destinations.
Each program investigates the history and progress of a skill, a means of
expression, or a practical discovery that has become an integral part of
economic life in a world-famous region. In this way, each story paints a
historical portrait and reveals a way of life. The Greatest Journeys on
Earth brings viewers into the network of inns and castles in each
destination. Gastronomy, leisure, and reminders of celebrities who marked
the history of these sites allow viewers to relive, in the present, the
magnificent times of the past.
