Peruvian culture is made up of literature, the lifestyle of Peru, and a collection of diverse art forms. Peru is known to be the heart of the Inca, and Peruvian art traditions can be traced back to Pre-Inca cultures. The construction of the the Machu Picchu illustrates the architectural achievements made by the Incas. Peruvian literature originally originated from the oral traditions of pre-Columbian civilizations. Marinera is known as the "National Dance of Peru." There are also some dances in Peru that are associated with agricultural work, hunting, and war. Ancient Peruvian instruments were made out of a wide variety of materials like conch shells, metals, mud, and horns. Peru celebrates about 3,000 festivals a year, and most of the festivals are related to Christian religion. A wide variety of foods are eaten in Peru, and the main ingredient of their food is maize, tomatoes, and potatoes. A typical Peruvian dish was "ceviche," or fish marinated in citrus juice. The modern culture of Peru is combined with a blend modern culture and a dash of ancient culture.
