After a reception with hot wine (or tea) and appetizers, local experts will explain and share stories about the influence the stars had on Andean culture.

Some of the animal geoglyphs are up to 1,200 feet long! You’ll also learn why the Nazca culture created these lines in the desert plains of the Rio Grande de Nazca River basin and how the Nazca people were able to carve out such massive designs.
