About

I am Guillermo Arévalo, a Peruvian contributor to WIkimedia Commons since 2006. As an architect my main interest is taking photographs of buildings, monuments and urban landscapes. Most of my pictures are taken in Peru but from time to time I also upload images taken in international trips. You are free to use my work provided that you give appropriate credit as it is requested in each image license.
