Plaza de Armas Arequipa Plaza de Armas de Arequipa

#tesaruonbudget The Best Free Seat in Peru This main square is the absolute definition of high value for zero cost! The view you get of the majestic Misti and Chachani volcanoes perfectly framing the white city is postcard-worthy, and it’s completely free. We spent almost an hour sitting on one of the many benches in the central gardens, just soaking up the atmosphere and people-watching. You don't need to pay for a viewpoint or an expensive terrace; the show is right here, in the street. It’s the perfect meeting point, easily reachable on foot from any downtown hostel. Arequipa is a dream for the budget traveler! #tesaruonbudget #freeview #whitesillarstone
