The Nazca Lines Nazca Lines The Nazca Lines are ancient geoglyphs wich are in the desert of Nazca, Perú. They are composed by some hundreds of figures from simple designs as lines to complex zoomorphic, fitomorphic and geometric figures drawing on the land surface, such as birds, llamas, jaguards, monkeys and humans. These figures can reach 365 meters. Contrary to popular belief, Nazca Lines are not only appreciated from the air, but also, they could be easily seen from the surrounding hills. As the years pass, some flights over the Nazca Lines have suffered different emergencies, being some of them fateful. Despite this, there are a lot of tourist who continue visiting this incredible place every year. The Nazca Lines were declared as World Heritage in 1994. However, in recent years they have suffered serious damage by the building of Pan-American highway. Besides, the most damage has been produced by human causes as invasions, illegal minery and looting. Nowadays, many research revealed different theories about Nazca Lines and the most accurate is: these lines were ceremonials and they were related with water. No doubt that this place is a big mistery for the whole world and it will continue surprising us.
