The Nazca Lines

Audiobook

Learn about the Nazca Lines with iMinds insightful audio knowledge series.

The Nazca Lines have been called the eighth wonder of the world. They are a series of large drawings on the ground – called geoglyphs – located in the Nazca desert, in Peru. The Nazca desert is a high plateau situated between the towns of Palpa and Nazca, which is 400 kilometres south of the Peruvian capital of Lima. The drawings are large outlines of creatures and plants, created by removing the red pebbles of the landscape to reveal the white earth underneath. What are left behind are striking white outlines of immense figures, best viewed from the air. The drawings include depictions of many animals, including hummingbirds, fish, monkeys, llamas and spiders.

Perfect to listen to while commuting, exercising, shopping or cleaning the house.. iMinds brings knowledge to your MP3 with 8 minute information segments to whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.
