Huacachina..a green oasis and a virgin lake in the heart of the desert

Arabiaweather.com - Ismael Gasmi - The country of Peru in South America includes a number of natural wonders , including the Huacachina Oasis located in the middle of the desert and sand dunes in the south of the country, only 8 kilometers from the city of Ica.

The oasis was formed around a beautiful natural lake surrounded by high sand dunes on all sides, and although the view suggests to you that this part of the world is in the midst of the extremely hot, arid desert, the reality says the opposite.

The city of Ica and its oasis, Huacachina, is located just an hour from the Pacific coast of Peru , in a region with the driest climate in the world, but it also has a pleasant and beautiful atmosphere that makes it a tourist destination.

The Huacachina Oasis was included in the National Cultural Heritage Sites of Peru. The permanent population of the oasis is about 100 people, all of whom work in the field of tourism, such as resorts, restaurants, tour services and sports activities.
