Peru and Italymy cultural identity

ITALY the Colosseum

• The Colosseum the symbol of Rome.All the people
  of the world come to see this marvellous
  monument. In the past the Colosseum was a place
  where the people gathered to see gladiators
  fighting ,executions and hunting shows
• Now for me it is one of my symbols because I live
  in Italy. Every time I see it I appreciate its
  beauty. I always wonder how life should have
  been in the years of its construction and how it
  would have been in the years of its splendour.

PERUMachu Picchu

• Machu Picchu best known as the Lost City
  because its located in the mountains.
• Machu Picchu has grown to be one of the wonders
  of the world.. This City has within it many
  symbols as The Stone of the Sun, the only
  stone with twelve corners in the world..
• This city for me is very important because makes
  me know the life of my ancestors and so I can
  know how they lived in ancient time. Thanks to
  them Machu Picchu and Peru is known worldwide..

Italian Flag

• The green,white and red flag is a symbol for all
  Italians. As I look at the colours of this flag
  , they remind me of a type of pizza the white
  is mozzarella,the is green basil and the red is
  tomatoes.
• For me its a symbol because it makes me
  remenber as I have always been welcomed by the
  Italian people and frankly I am very happy to
  live here and have a cultural exchange with the
  Italian people .

Peruvian Flag

• The Peruvian flag one of the many symbols of
  Perù. Its colors were given by the general Jose
  de San Martin after a dream where he saw a type
  of bird with a white chest and both wings red
  blood..
• For me and for the whole population,the Peruvian
  flag is an important symbol because its colors
  remind us of the peace which is now in Peru and
  the blood of the so many soldiers killed in wars
  with our neighbors..

ITALY the Trevi Fountain

• The Trevi Fountain one of the most beautiful
  fountains in the world, so much visited by many
  tourists who come from all over the world to be
  photographed here.
• Tradition says that if you express a wish and
  throw a coin into the fountain youll be back in
  Rome.
• I love this monument because its really
  beautiful and reminds me so much of my country.
• I once threw a coin into the fountain but I
  didnt mean to stay in this beautiful country.

PERU the Park of Lovers

• The Park of Lovers because in the middle of the
  park there is the sculpture we can see in the
  picture..
• This park is visited by people in love. They say
  that if you express a desire to remain with your
  girlfriend or your boyfriend the magic of the
  park will achieve your desire and forever..
• To me this park is important because so many
  things reminds me of my past life and I hope to
  return soon to my country and maybe accompanied..

The Pizza

• The Pizza is considered an Italian symbol because
  if you talk about pizza Italy comes immediately
  to your mind..
• Many tourists come to see the sculptures and so
  many things in Rome but dont go away without
  eating pizza because the real pizza is only in
  Italy.
• The first time I ate a pizza here I heard the
  true flavour and taste of a pizza as it should be
  done and now I appreciate it much more..
• For me the pizza is now one of my favorite foods.

The Ceviche

• The ceviche is made with fish,onions and other
  spicy ingredients but above all it is very hot..
• Whoever dares to eat this dish must be very brave
  because the first impact is spicy but then it
  tastes much more..
• Every time I come back to my country I go to a
  restaurant to eat ceviche and I cant leave my
  country without having eaten at least one dish of
  this Peruvian dish..

San Pietro

• San Pietro one of the most famous churches in
  Italy. Tourists from around the world come to see
  it and are amazed by its beauty.
• One of the oldest churches in the world but full
  of works of art..
• The building dates back to 1506..
• Its structure has changed over the years but it
  is still spectacular.
• I went to see it a few times.
• When Christmas arrives in the center of the
  square there is a nice crib and you must not
  miss it.

The Cathedral Of Lima

• The Cathedral Of Lima is one of the most
  beautiful churches in the world..
• Its construction dates back to 1500, ending in
  1797 with the two towers..
• In the evening this church is wonderful for the
  lights of its interiors. Its a symbol of the
  faith of all the people who worked for its
  construction..
• I remember walking with friends inside and the
  wedding of a friend of mine..
• For me it is very important for its beauty but
  especially for its meaning
