Top 5 Peruvian Casinos

Top 5 Peruvian Casinos

Have you ever visited Peru? If the answer to that question is no - and you consider yourself to be an adventurous sort - then I must urge you to make a voyage to this magical, mystical land at the earliest possible opportunity. No, I am not a travel agent nor do I work for the Peruvian Chamber of Commerce, I simply base my recommendation upon a personal experience I had in the late 1970s which altered me on a profound level, the effects of which are still felt to this day. Perhaps a bit of explanation is called for.

In the summer 1979, while conducting some anthropological studies during a three-month stay in Berkeley, California, I came across a most interesting bit of Peruvian folklore while lost in the deep stacks of the campus library. Flipping through the yellowed pages of a dusty old tome written in a strange tribal dialect I could barely decipher, I read a passage which truly made my hair stand on end.

Apparently, located up in the highest reaches of the Andes, several thousand feet above Machu Picchu, there grows an extraordinarily rare herb which is purported to have unbelievably powerful effects upon the physical capacities of the average human being. Vivid descriptions of the sexual potency which could be derived by the consumption of this plant consumed no less than 75 pages, not that I was solely interested in his aspect. As a student of life, it seemed only natural that I make a journey to those high craggy peaks in the Andean range.

What happened over the course of the following year is suitable material for an entire book, though not a book to be read by anyone under the age of 18. For now, let me restrict my scribbling to one specific element of my journey: the discovery of five outstanding casinos in Peru.
