Phenomenon - NAZCA PAGE

The Nazca Lines are amazing line images in a desert, Southern Peru, depicting animals, only visible from the air.
They portray such diverse creatures like a whale, dog, monkey, man, hummingbird, condor and spider.They are located in the Pampa region of Peru. The desolate plain of the Peruvian coast which comprises the Pampas of San Jose (Jumana), Socos, El Ingenio and others in the province of Nasca, which is 400 Km. South of Lima, covers an area of approximately 450 km2, of sandy desert as well as the slopes of the contours of the Andes.
