Trujillo is known as “the city of eternal spring” due to its near perfect weather year round – with sunny skies and 70 degree temperatures. Located on the northern coast of Peru it is a historic city in an area that has been inhabited for thousands of years. It may be this ideal climate that has made it so idylic.

Modern Trujillo, is at its core a walled colonial city that was founded by conquistador Diego de Almagro in 1534. Trujillo has twice served as capital of Peru and was the birthplace of the Peruvian Justice System.

Visiting Trujillo offers visitors to discover lovely beautiful beaches, renowned culture, as well as archaeological sites like the Moche’s Huacas de la Sol y Luna ( Temple of Sun and Moon), the largest pre Colombian city in the Americas, Chan Chan. Trujillo is an diverse destination and it’s friendly people make it a wonderful place to spend a night or two while visiting Peru’s Kingdom’s of the North.

Peru is home to a number of fascinating archaeological sites. Peru has been home to numerous cultures for thousands of years and due to its dry coastal climate many ancient treasures many of them have been preserved allowing today’s visitors to glimpse into the colorful cultures and their magnificent works of art.

A lesser known sites is a short 15 minute drive south of Trujillo is one of the most spectacular. The Huacas de la Sol y Luna are located in a valley along the Moche River. The huacas are adobe pyramids built by the Moche Culture approximately 1500 years ago. The Temple of the Moon is the smaller of the two temples and is located in front of Cerro Blanco in a North-South Orientation and served as the religious center for the city. While the Temple of the Sun is the newer and larger of the two temples has an east-west orientation, is located in front of Cerro Negro and served as the administration center. The two Huacas are separated by a valley approximately 500 square meters wide that served as the Moche Capital City.

Restoration of the Temple of the Moon began in 1991 and the site was opened to visitors in 1995, while restoration of the Temple of the Sun is scheduled to begin in 2011. Visiting the sites includes a visit to the museum located near the entrance of the Temple of the Moon. The University of Trujillo Museum has an excellent collection of artifacts collected from the site as well as several multimedia presentations of the Moches including their art, architecture and religion.

Thanks to the Moches belief system, the Temple de Luna is one of the most interesting archeological visits in the Americas. The Moches built the pyramids in levels. Each approximately 100 years they would build a new pyramid completely encompassing the old pyramid. To do so they would fill the old structure will adobe bricks and then plaster over the bricks to seal off the old and make way for the new. As a result when archaeologist began studying the site some 20 years ago, they began peeling back layers and uncovering the original art work of the Moches, tombs, ceramics, and other ornaments. Their work has been solely to discover and preserve the site for the future – there has been no restoration or “reinterpretation” of the pyramid as is seen at many of the other archaeological sites.

Development of the site – the two pyramids and the city in between has been done completely with private funding from individuals, foundations, the university and companies. Much of the work is done by students both locally and from aboard. The Temple of the Moon is a fascinating site well worth the visit and we can only believe that once work begins on the Temple of the Sun and the wonders of that site are made available to the public, that it will become one of the most popular destinations in Peru.

Prior to the Incas the Chimu Culture lived in the fertile valley area near modern day Trujillo in northern Peru. Descendants of the great Moche Culture who built the great Pyramids of Sol y Luna the Chumu Culture had some similarities to the Moche and some distinct differences in the way they lived. Like the Moche the Chimu lived off the fruit of the sea, they used adobe as their main construction material, they decorated their construction and their ceramics with paintings done in yellows, reds, blacks and whites.

However unlike the Moche’s the Chamu did not build enormous pyramids with the city between them – the Chimu built Chan Chan. At 7.7 square miles Chan Chan was the largest pre-Columbian city in the Americas. The city was built with a triangular shaped walled city with the outside protective walls stretching 50 – 60 feet in to the air. It was comprised of 10 walled citadels which housed palaces, burial chambers, temples, boulevards, ceremonial plazas and springs were dug and reservoirs created so that they would have fresh water. The exterior walls made the city so impregnable that even after a lengthy 10 year war, the only way the Inca’s were capable of conquering the city was to finally cut off water supply by breaking the aqueduct system that had been built to provide water to the farms and city.

The Chimu so hated the Incas that when the Spanish arrived they welcomed them with open arms. Francisco Pizzaro and Diego de Almagro established the neighboring city of Trujillo named after Pizzaro’s home in Spain. The Chimu quickly abandoned Chan Chan and the once great city laid in waste to the environment. Winds and rain during years of el Niño would deteriorate the city’s walls and the colorful murals. For hundreds of years there it sat until in 1969 a Harvard mission headed by Michael E. Moseley came to study Chan Chan.

Today mapping of the site is incomplete and archaeological exploration has only just begun. A restoration effort is underway reconstructing much of the city to look as it did during the time of the Chimu. Visiting Chan Chan is one of the highlights in the northern kingdoms of Peru. Currently only the Tschudi Palace is open to visitors. However as you enter the site you can see the once great city has been cut in half by the Pan-American highway only to imagine how awe inspiring it must have been.

An aircraft safety card is a printed document that instructs passengers during a flight about the procedures for dealing with various emergency conditions that might arise.

While technology continues to play an increasingly significant role in the way airlines communicate with passengers during flights, the importance of printed documents should not be overlooked. Safety cards are a prime example. They put essential instructions for emergency situations into the hands of passengers and provide peace of mind before the flight takes off.

Airlines usually provide safety cards on all commercial flights and place them in the back pocket of the seat in front of each passenger. Pre-flight safety demonstrations, either conducted by cabin crew or through a video presentation, instruct passengers to familiarise themselves with the safety card prior to take-off

Content

The cards are often laminated or made of plastic to ensure they are robust enough to be handled regularly by different passengers. The instructions need to be specific to the model of the airplane they are found in. The contents are usually in the form of pictures, graphically illustrating such procedures as buckling the seat belts, bracing for impact in an airplane crash, dealing with depressurisation, opening the emergency exit door or inflating life rafts in the event of a water landing.

The graphic representation allows safety cards to be understood by those speaking a different language than the flight attendants, as well as children and illiterate passengers. Some airlines provide braille versions of their safety cards for the visually impaired.

Supplier

When looking to produce a new aircraft safety card or update an existing one, it’s important to use a trusted and experienced inflight entertainment content service provider (CSP). One that understands airplane safety procedures, differing aircraft models and has the design skills to produce a high quality, effective safety card. A good CSP will also be able to take care of all your other IFE requirements such movie, TV and audio licensing as well as safety films, promotional videos and GUI design.

Because brand consistency is obviously very important, it is also beneficial for airlines to choose a supplier that has experience in producing in-flight entertainment guides, duty free magazines, brochures, flyers and adverts for airlines.

The next step for the airline, once it has the right printed documents in place, is to consider how digital platforms, such as in-flight video and audio, can be used to support key safety messages and help passengers to enjoy a relaxed and care-free flying experience.

Did you know that Thanksgiving is the busiest time of year for air travel? And because it’s such a popular travel holiday, that means you can expect long lines and lots of delays going through the security checkpoints. Along with a big dose of patience, it helps to keep these Thanksgiving travel tips in mind before you set off for the airport parking lot.

Timing is Everything

The busier the airport, the more time you need to allow to get to there and make it through the long lines. This means leaving your house earlier than you normally would; after all, thousands of others just like you are making their way to the airport, too, so traffic is bound to be congested. It’s ideal to arrive at the airport with at least two hours to spare before your flight departs.

Don’t rely on the airport parking lots to have a convenient space open. Particularly over periods of heavy air travel, it’s wise to use offsite airport parking so you can be assured of a spot and timely transportation to the terminal without any hassles or delays.

Check-In

After you park at the airport and approach the check-in counter, expect a long line. If you’ve never printed your boarding pass and checked in to your flight online before, now might be the ideal time to give it a go because it will save you lots of time and aggravation.

If you can, travel light and don’t check any luggage. Just be sure your carry-on fits the airline’s specifications as far as dimensions and weight and that your liquids are compliant with TSA guidelines.

If you simply can’t travel without checking baggage, as long as you check in online the day before your flight, you’ll still save a great deal of time by being able to head straight for the luggage drop-off area. And depending on which airport you are flying from, you may be able to check your bags curbside, avoiding the crowds indoors.

Security

Then there’s the dreaded security line… The best piece of advice is to anticipate the screening process and be prepared. That means wearing shoes that are easy to slip off, not taking anything through the security line that could warrant a closer inspection (jewelry, scissors, pocketknife, computerized devices, etc.), and ensuring that liquids in your carry-on baggage are small and appropriately packaged (this applies to beverages, too). Have your boarding pass and ID ready; you may want to purchase lanyards for all members of your family so these documents are always handy yet out of the way.

Thanksgiving is all about the food for most families, but if you want to fly with a jar of your homemade cranberry sauce or spiced apple cider in tow, forget it. Restrictions apply to these foods since they are categorized as liquids and gels; it’s just more hassle than it’s worth to try to bring your homemade holiday goodies on the plane – although you could put them in checked baggage if you’re adamant about bringing them.

If you are one of the millions of people expected to fly over the Thanksgiving holiday, use these air travel tips to make your experience more pleasant and less time-consuming. And do remember to be patient; everyone else at the airport wants to enjoy their holiday, too.
