Plaza De Armas

This is Arequipa. This church is the most famous building in the city. Like many of the other buildings, it's made of white volcanic stone extracted from the volcanoes surrounding the city (giving Arequipa the name "The White City"). The plaza is the largest open area to chill we have seen thus far. There are a ton of pigeons here as people sit on the benches and feed them. Kids love to run through the flock of pigeons which is adorable until the pigeons are suddenly taking flight into your face.
