	Arequipa Peru - Holiday Information from Real Peru
		Variously known as the "Jewel of the South" for its beauty, "The White City" for its stunning buildings in the local sillar stone, and "The City of the Volcanoes" for the snow-capped (dormant!) volcanoes that lie just behind the city, it is, quite simply, a place to fall in love with.
		Arequipa fits into Peru holidays all year round because the climate is blessedly warm and dry all year-round: it almost never rains, it barely even gets cloudy, and the air stays mountain-fresh.
		Arequipa is also home to the convent of Santa Catalina, and this is probably the major attraction for people visiting Arequipa on a holiday in Peru.
