The Fascinating History of the Nazca Lines

Historically, many theories have been proposed regarding their purpose, ranging from astronomical calendar functions to ceremonial pathways. However, their true significance remains an enigma, which only adds to their allure. Our Nazca Line tour delves into these mysteries, examining the site through both scientific and cultural lenses.
