• Paracas - After gathering all the travelers, the journey will commence to the Candelabra, one of the attractions on the itinerary. The transfer time is approximately 20 minutes.
• The Chandelier - The Paracas Candelabra is a mysterious and enormous figure located on a hillside in the Paracas Peninsula, Peru. This impressive geoglyph is about 180 meters long and is clearly visible from the sea.

The shape of the Candelabra has sparked numerous theories regarding its origin and purpose. Some suggest it was created by the Paracas culture around 200 BC, while others propose it might have served as a nautical signal or had religious or astronomical significance.

The figure is etched into the arid earth, and its design has remarkably withstood the test of time and harsh weather conditions, remaining largely intact. This resilience is partly due to the region’s minimal rainfall and the terrain’s composition.

Visiting the Candelabra is a captivating experience, offering a unique glimpse into Peru’s archaeological mysteries and a direct connection to the ancient civilizations that once inhabited the area.
