V!VA User‘s Description
The town of Nazca is a dusty outpost in the San José desert. The town and area would be unremarkable if it were not for the Nazca Lines, a series of 70 or so large designs etched into the dry desert outside of town.
Nazca itself is a ramshackle town that has learned how to live off the tourist trade. Visitors to the town who arrive by bus will be greeted by a small swarm of pushy locals wishing to sell tours to the lines or try to get them to stay in certain hotels. The best way to see the lines is to go through reputable agencies, of which there are several available in town.
