What do you think about the plan of making a "teleferique" to ascent the Misti??
I heard some rumours about it.
i've done a variety of "teleferiques" - kind of like a grownup playground - i'd say go for it and have fun.

With teleferique I suppose you mean a cable transportation system that runs in the air. I have hear the same rumours about making such things also at Machu Picchu.
I hope they will not build such things.
There is only on vulcan Misti, it would be a shame to construct anything on the side of the vulcan. Keep it nice and clean!

By car, you wander through the surroundings of Arequipa, making stops at the main spots of interest such as the square and church of Cayma, mirador of Yanahuara and Sachaca, Sabandía watermill, Mansión del Fundador, inca terraces of Yumina and village of Characato (3-4 hours) .
You have to visit in Arequipa this beautiful place where still live some nuns, but where time ago lived more than 400 nuns.
There you find beautiful gardens, kind of museum about life of the nuns, artwork and much more.
This church is slightly off the beaten path on northern edge of the center, but it's worth the short walk. When we were here, there was some restoration going on, but we were still able to visit with no trouble. The luminous interior glistens with candlelight and is really quite magical.
The church dates to the early 17th century, but was destroyed in a fire in the early 19th century and then rebuilt. There are some subtle elements of Andean and Moorish architecture to be found along with, of course, Spanish colonial style.
We found Arequipa to be a charming city, though it`s look may be deceiving when viewing it from the air as you`re arriving. It`s known as the "White City" due to the white-washed buildings, but very few of these are around to support this claim.
Of all the locations we toured in Peru, we found Arequipa to have the best food and a great deal of charm. The Plaza De Armas is really nice, with rows of terrace restaurants on both sides featuring all variety of foods.

A: "There are no direct flights Arequipa-Tacna. The only way to fly Arequipa-Tacna is with LAN Perú via Lima but at a price."
