ENJOY PERU - ORCHIDS IN PERU - NATURE |
 | | There are hiking paths in Ecuador which are excellent for viewing orchids, such as Los Palmitos, near Quito, which leads you to fascinating orchid gardens containing almost 200 species, some of which are so small they can only be viewed with a magnifying glass. |
 | | The so-called "Land of the Orchids" is found in the department of San Martin in Peru, where such orchids such as Anguloa, Cattleya, Catasetum, Bollea, Brassia, Coryanthes, Lycaste are to be found in abundance. |
 | | Beautiful orchids can also be found in Bolivia amongst the ruins of Tiahunaco or Samaipata, or at the sides of modern roads, or on the banks of many rivers and lakes. |
