Looks beautiful!!!
The only question I have: "How dangerous really is Peru?"
I cannot carry my M1911 being a visitor in Peru. This is a rule, I know 🙂
Is it a safe place to visit? How much can I trust a local police?
===========
No offence, bro.
I travel with my family, so "safety first" is my primary rule.
I think there are a lot of Peruvian players that can answer your question.
Where they are?
Check with EBM for example. He was quite active in this article.

>It is some danger places as all.
Is it "sarcasm" post?
One of my friends had a really bad experience in Peru.
That's why I'm asking.
sorry for boombing you for a lot of photos. I hope you could update with some 🙁
I made the second article; if you still want to put some pictures in here too I will gladly add them. But having them in "your" article are also valuable.

"- Peru was the unique country who helped to Argentina in Malvinas war, sending missiles and pilots."
Not only that, they elaborated a peace deal in which Malvinas were to be occupied by 4 countries until negotiations between UK and Argentina finished with a solution, this was refused by our de facto president Galtieri and war kept on. They moved their entire navy fleet to the border with Chile in case they wanted to invade Argentina. They gave us 10 Mirage fighters and even bought another 23 to Israel for us.
A shame that later our presiden M*nem decided to give weapons to Ecuador in their war against Peru...
Perú es una colonia de mi amada España
Les dimos educación
Les dimos religión
Y como nos pagaron, matando a nuestros ciudadanos que sólo buscaban ayudar al pueblo peruano,
Viva el rey Carlos V, viva mi amada Santander, desde trasmiera para todo el mundo.
Los campos de gules darán paso al nuevo imperio
