Culture of Peru

Peruvian culture is the gradual blending of Amerindian cultures with European and African ethnic groups. The ethnic diversity and rugged geography of Peru allowed diverse traditions and customs to co-exist. Peruvian culture has been deeply influenced by Native culture, Spanish culture, and African culture.[1][2][3] Other minor influences on their culture are Chinese, Japanese, and other European peoples.[4][5]
