In northern Peru, the unprecedented archaeological discovery of the largest known mass child sacrifice in the world opens the doors to the kingdom of Chimor.

There are three Perus: its great rainforest, the Andes foothills and the pacific coastal deserts. Across two hours, we explores all these diverse habitats. Peru is a land of dramatic contrasts. Although rainforests cover more than half of this country, to the west are very different ecosystems in the shadow of the Great Andes Mountain range.

In south-east Peru there is a region called Madre De Dios, a vast tropical rainforest. But although the landscape and wildlife here are breath-taking, it's also a battlefield.

Peru - Over the Andes by rail, looking for the old Inca culture. These are the ingredients for this train journey through the South-American country of Peru.
Ecuador - Rail Away is travelling to the centre of the world. Ecuador is situated exactly on the border separating the Northern and Southern Hemisphere. It is not just the country of Indians but also the country of beautiful nature. By rail, a fascinating view passes before us. From the capital city of Quito, we travel in a southerly direction across the Sierra plain along the Andes mountain chain and proceed to Buçay.

One of the world's top wildlife photographers, Cyril Ruoso, is partnered up with a scientific journalist for an adventurous journey through three of the most extreme ecosystems on our planet, the impenetrable rainforest of the Amazon, the sky scraping glaciers of the Andes, and the desert plains of the Pacific Coast of Peru. During their search for rare and uncommon species, they meet with scientists and discover what links all three ecosystems together. Finally, they understand the need to preserve them when climate change and human activity are threatening their very existence.

An unprecedented archeological discovery of several hundreds sacrificed children and llamas opens the gates to the Kingdom of Chimor set in today’s Northern Peru. Told as a cold case, this international archeological investigation is set to unveil the mysteries of the most powerful Andean civilization before the Incas, which thrived for over five centuries.
