Eco Truly Arica
$$$$affordable
Restaurant
Eco Truly Arica is an enchanting establishment that boasts stunning architecture and exceptional customer service. The venue offers a variety of children's entertainment options, making it a perfect destination for families. However, one drawback is the presence of bothersome insects that inflict painful bites throughout the entire Lluta Valley. To combat this issue, visitors are advised to bring insect repellent and apply soap directly on their skin in case of any bites.
(Translated by Google) It is a beautiful place, very well attended. It has games for children, the architecture is beautiful. The only problem is that there are bugs that bite a lot, it happens throughout the Lluta valley, so bring repellent and if they bite you, use soap directly on the skin.
(Original)
Es un lugar bello, muy bien atendido. Tiene juegos para niños, la arquitectura es hermosa. El único problema es que hay bichitos que pican muchísimo, pasa en todo el vale de Lluta, así que lleven repelente y si les pican usen jabón directo en la piel.

(Translated by Google) Formerly an excellent place, today abandoned, the people who took care of the environment are no longer there, the plantations are dry, the place in general looks abandoned, no one receives it, and they offer lemon pie, which had something strange about it, I didn't like it. Bad experience.

Antiguamente un excelente lugar, hoy abandonado, las personas que cuidaban el medio ambiente ya no están, las plantaciones secas, el lugar en general luce abandonado, nadie recibe, y ofrecen pie de limón, que algo raro tenía, no me gustó. Pésima experiencia.

The only big drawback is the mosquitoes that bite you throughout your stay and you don't realize it until you get home and your skin is all red. When we went there was no one, we were able to go in and everything but no one came out to serve us the day before Christmas. We leave our contribution the same.

(Translated by Google) If you want to spend a moment disconnecting from work life and enjoy something familiar, this is your option. Honestly, it is a place of connection with nature so you will not find the luxuries of a 4-star hotel, but it is a place to live a different experience.

The Bosque Municipal de Tacna in Peru is a park that has limited space for animals, but it is hoped that the local government will provide more support for the project. It is not an accessible location for those with mobility or wheelchair disabilities, but it provides affordable admission and parking facilities. Visitors are advised to arrive early as the entrance closes at 3pm.

Bab-ul-Islam Mosque is a welcoming place for all visitors to experience the beauty of Islam. The community of brothers from Pakistan are known for their warmth and hospitality towards all who come to pray. Despite some negative perceptions of Muslims, the mosque encourages everyone to visit and learn about Islamic practices. It's important not to be misled by misconceptions or negative opinions, as Bab-ul-Islam Mosque is a peaceful and beautiful place where visitors can pray five times a day.
I've finally visited this Mosque, if any one trying to defame Islam by saying that is not a welcoming place is a fool, the brothers from Pakistan are very hard warming and welcoming people, we came in The Path of Allah over 25 brothers from Lima along the brothers from France they have a Sheik here from Yemen that was very happy to see us, some bad apples that claim to be Muslim sometimes act, like non Muslims maybe the guardian of the mosque didn't like that person that came for a reason or maybe 🤔 he was a Fed for all we know either way you're more than welcome 🤗 to come to visit the house of Allah don't let the Shaytan scare you or misguide you by tanking negative this is a beautiful Mosque and very beautiful people this is a Mosque not a museum we pray five times a day here.
Sun “Bucky” Times — Google review
This is indeed a beautiful mosque. Yet, the Pakistanian community there is known for not being friendly. I traveled to Tacna specially to visit the masjid and join them for Friday prayer. So I was very excited and went a little bit early and wanted to know about the Mosque and Muslim community there. The keeper (who actually didn't seem to be Pakistani) acted as if I was a CIA spy; what is he, an idiot?! The rest of the community were not that welcoming and friendly. I heard from the taxi driver and one other person that they are known for not being friendly and not being nice. They apparently made their money out of selling used cars. So, they don't have a good reputation among the general public. It would have been better to have a ugly Mosque and a beautiful community than a beautiful Mosque but an ugly community!

Tacna Cathedral is a stunning neo-renaissance edifice that was constructed in 1875 under the supervision of Gustave Eiffel, the renowned architect who designed the Eiffel Tower. Although it may not be as grandiose as some other cathedrals in Europe, it boasts an exquisite front facade that is particularly striking when viewed at night.
Beautiful Cathedral. Amazing plaza around it. Great tourist destination for some history and great photos.

It's a great place to be in a mass, however the cathedral needs maintenance.
The Paseo Cívico de Tacna is a well-designed square featuring a bronze fountain and an impressive arch built in 1957 to pay tribute to the victims of the War of the Pacific. This paved plaza offers a beautiful environment with its clean surroundings, pleasant weather averaging around 65 degrees Fahrenheit, and friendly locals. It serves as an excellent venue for socializing and enjoying the city's charm, offering a serene atmosphere filled with light and beauty.

Historic centre of Tacna. Beautiful architecture and design. (The front of the cathederal is "mirrowed" in the stone pavement in front of it.) The arch is in the form of a bullet and has statues of Grau and Bolognesi on either side. This commemorates the War of the Pacific.

Its a place where we can experience local food at a fraction of the price compared to tourist restaurants. Very competitive on that matter because there's many Chileans also working there. You can compare it to a huge grocery store and bargain store all in one. Fruits and vegetables are very cheap and they bring them in large quantities, what's favorable to tourists looking for local fruits or veggies because they sell it buy the kilo. I myself got 5 mangoes for a dollar (3.80 soles) and broccoli for 50 cents (about a pound) - that's just a small example. Its not really a touristic place, its a local community commercial center. Still, great to find amazing bargains!

A traditional place, recently refurbished, with many different things, starting for small convenience stores, with local products, milk, chocolates and any sort of thing for cooking or cleaning. LOL.
In the second floor you cand find a nice display of natural juice makers, who tempt you with fresh fruit slices for free like mangoes and melons. It is very cheap and juices are awesome because of the quality of the organic local fruits, tasty and aromatic. And for less than a dollar you can drink the WHOLE BLENDER. Yes, the whole blender.
There's a hidden sublevel where you can buy alcohol and cigarrettes from all around the world for very good prices (JW black for $40 bottle) and also there's nice cheap place to get a manicure or pedicure with nail design for less than $3 dollars.
In the surroundings you can find pirate buses to Arica, most of them, chilean. Good option to avoid crowded buses at the international station.

It does not have an ATM, so you have to bring cash or card (depending on the location). It is clean, has a small dining room and services such as massages and others.

Adoro este lugar! Es un gran persa y para los chilenos, un gran panorama. Abundan ropa y accesorios en algodón peruano, que es fantástico porque dura ene. No cuenta con cajero, así que hay que llevar efectivo o tarjeta ( dependiendo del local). Es limpio, cuenta con un pequeño comedor y servicios como masajes y otros.

(Translated by Google) It's not the same as before. Some stores are closed and the variety of products is not great. The souvenirs may be up to par, but I prefer the quality of what is sold and the respectful attention of those who offer their merchandise.

No es lo mismo que antes. Algunos locales están cerrados y la variedad de productos no es mucha. Los recuerdos pueden que sí estén a la altura, más me quedo con la calidad de lo que se vende y por la atención respetuosa de quiénes ofertan su mercadería

You can find anything you want at discount prices but don't expect a regular mall, there are booths.

Nice place. You can find about everything but somethings this are fake and the worst is that they sell it as expensive as real.

A lot of cheap junk and fake. There isn't a lot to see in Tacna anyway and you will get some local colour here.
The open air museum of Petroglifos de Miculla showcases ancient rock carvings depicting hunting and dancing figures in arid landscapes, believed to be centuries old. This cultural site holds great significance in Tacna and can be accessed via a city tour or by car. The museum is located away from the city but is included in the tour package that costs around 30-40 soles (official currency of Peru).
It has a wonderful view and verybrustic bridges around.

This is an important place in Tacna as it represents a significant cultural aspect of the place. You can get there by car as well as you can take a city tour. The petroglyphs of Miculla are not located in near the city but they are also part of the city tour, which costs between 30 to 40 soles (official currency in Peru ~ 9 to 13 USD~)

Aramu Muru, also known as the Gate of the Gods, is a stone-cut alcove located in the Hayu Marca mountain range near Lake Titicaca in Peru. This dramatic canyon setting is about 115 km from Juliaca City and approximately 78 km from Desaguadero on the border with Bolivia. Discovered accidentally in 1996, this Incan construction project's purpose remains unknown.
Even if you are not into mysticism, the terrain alone is enough to marvel at. The red earth and rock outcrops shapes are otherworldly in stature. It’s not something you see every day. I could not operate the drone within close proximity to the “portal”. I’m guess it’s the magnetic interference. I had to walk probably a hundred meters before the drone would respond. Amazing place.

Nice touristic Inca place to visit if you are in Puno, Perú. You can see Lake Titicaca from there

This place is truly something remarkable and special!!! We had such an incredible time here. The energy of this place is truly unparalleled to anywhere else on the planet I’ve been!
The crystals and local artesanal crafts are super cheap!!! Buy off each one of them even if it’s a small crystal!!! Only 1-10soles depending on the stone
Must visit, 5soles to get in!! 😍🙌🏼🤩

Nice place. If you are an advanced rock climber in particulat. If not just enjoy a nice walk and beautiful rock formations. An old man at the bottom asks money for so called guide services. Nice to give him a coin.

Aramu Muru is a stone carving in Hayu Marca (a majestic and rugged mountain range along the shores of Lake Titicaca - Peru), some 115 km from Juliaca City and about 78 km from border city Desaguadero (with Bolivia). Known as “Gate of the Gods”, it was accidently discovered in 1996 and is believed by locals to be an abandoned Incan construction project (although what purpose the space once served is still unknown).
Aramu Muru is cut in the side of one such granite crest. The flat stone is approximately 7.0 m square, with a T-shaped alcove is 198 cm high carved in the bottom middle (one man can fit into it). The surface of the portal is well-polished.
Many local legends tell that - Aramu Muru is seen as a gate leads to the spirit world or even - to the world of gods. Anyway, it is not known when Aramu Muru was made and who did it as no archaeological research has been done here yet. Nowadays, locals carry out rituals of all kinds at the door of Aramu Muru, to ask for peace, to say thank you to the Gods or ask for hope.
On the other side of the cliff in earlier times was located a tunnel, which is blocked now with stones to prevent mishaps with tourists.
July and August are the best months when most tourists visit Aramu Muru to explore, make some hiking, rituals... Whatever the reason is that you visit Aramu Muru, you will certainly be fascinated, for the natural beauty that surrounds Lake Titicaca, the varied geography, the legends or the spiritual energy that undoubtedly recharges you in this beautiful area of Peru.

Cool rock formations ala Moab in the USA, but more limited in area. Plus a rather incredible large sacred Inca/pre-inca construction. 30 minutes to a full day makes sense.

One of the most spiritual places I've ever visited! Socrates, the aymara guy who charges you at the entrance showed us the back part of the mountain where the ancient drawings are and convinced me to camp there someday (I can't wait!). Socrates and some other ladies who were selling gifts there explained how the aymara language works! I loved every part of this experience, one of the greatest I lived in Peru

I had this entire sacred place with 3 energy vortexes running through it yesterday to myself. I took a shot at seeing if I was worthy to pass through the inter dimensional stargate of Aramu Muru and it did not happen the way I thought so. Instead it happened on the stone throne above it. A hard and difficult place to get to. I climbed up to sit on the stone throne and meditated for a bit to open my eyes to a dynamic range of colors beyond a rainbow spectrum and suddenly had a strong sensation of vertigo and Im not afraid of hieghts. I had to get off of it. It was to much. This place has 3 of 7 of these thrones in all Peru. The other is at Machu Picchu but they wont let the public touch it. But here it is available to experience and I finally got to try it for myself. Awesome place!
The Basilica of Our Lady of Copacabana, a Catholic church located in the center of town, boasts exquisite architecture that blends elements of both a church and a moral. The cathedral is worth visiting, as it stands out amongst other colonial churches in Europe. Visitors may be surprised to see an unusually long line of cars waiting for the priest's blessing, which is only available at this particular church. While pictures cannot be taken inside, the interior is just as impressive as the exterior façade.
Beautiful cathedral in the center of town. The only strange sight was the insanely long line of cars waiting to be blessed by the Priest (a service provided only at this Church specially) which is something I have never observed anywhere else before.

Coming from Europe, colonial church’s don’t call my attention so much. But this one has an exquisite architecture, something between a church and a moral. It totally deserves the visit. They were painting when we were there a week ago, so it should be even more beautiful soon.

I'll never travel to Copacabana without this trip planner again
Cerro El Calvario is a peak located near Copacabana that offers breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Titicaca. It is a popular destination for tourists who want to marvel at the magnificent scenery from atop the mountain. In addition, visitors can explore noteworthy attractions nearby such as the 17th century Moorish Copacabana Cathedral and Andean artifacts housed in Museo del Poncho. For those seeking unique accommodations, a quirky animal-inspired hostel could be an interesting option.
Copacabana and lake are both great. There is a very affordable hotel in front of the lake with amazing view (30$ or so per night).

We walked up Cerro Calvario, a hill north of town, where we climbed pass 14 stations of the cross. Due to the high altitude I struggled with the climb, but made it to the summit. There is a great view of Copacabana and Lake Tititcaca.

A must climb if you are in the area. If you take the Bolivia hop one day lake titicaca tour, you will have about an hour and 30 minutes before your boat leaves after being dropped off in town - perfect time for a hike!

La montée est rude, on s'arrête souvent pour reprendre son souffle mais on est content une fois arrivé au sommet car la vue est jolie. Par contre, 4 étoiles car c'est vraiment très très sale ! Beaucoup de déchets partout, des cadavres de bouteilles à chaque coin, des sacs plastiques à foison et même des couches pleines...

The climb is tough, we often stop to catch our breath but we are happy once we reach the top because the view is pretty. On the other hand, 4 stars because it is really very very dirty! Lots of waste everywhere, dead bottles in every corner, plastic bags galore and even full diapers...
