Why should you come to Peru? The London based media outlet put together a convincing list.

Those are just some of the descriptions the London based paper gave to Peru, a country as vibrant as it is diverse.

Of course, some usual suspects make the cut, such as Machu Picchu and Pisco Sours. However lesser known gems such as Kuelap and a certain oasis in southwest Peru get some love too.

1. It’s easy to get there

A new, thrice-weekly British Airways service from Gatwick to Lima launched in May, bringing this South American nation a bit closer to home. The airline's decision to reopen the route, which had been closed since 1982, is helping to put Peru back on the map.

2. Lima is resurgent

Peru's capital, Lima, is finally stepping out of the shadows - and there are some luxurious hotels to boot

3. There’s Machu Picchu…

Topping many a bucket list, the ancient city of Machu Picchu is the most visited tourist attraction in South America and can be reached via hiking trails or a lofty railway line.
