The Nazca Lines are a series of large ancient geoglyphs in the Nazca Desert, in southern Peru.
Las líneas de Nazca son antiguos geoglifos​ que se encuentran en las pampas de Jumana, en el desierto de Nazca, entre las poblaciones de Nazca y Palpa, en el departamento de Ica. Fueron trazadas por la cultura nazca y están compuestas por varios cientos de figuras que abarcan desde diseños tan simples como líneas hasta complejas figuras zoomorfas, fitomorfas y geométricas que aparecen trazadas sobre la superficie terrestre. Desde 1994, el Comité de la Unesco ha inscrito Las líneas y geoglifos de Nazca y de Pampas de Jumana como Patrimonio de la Humanidad.​

There are many theories as to how these works of art were created. I'm just glad we have airplanes that allow us to look down on them and appreciate all their hard work.
