The point exactly opposite Peru's center through the Earth's core
If you dug a tunnel straight through the Earth's center from Peru, you'd surface nearest to Trần Văn Thời, Vietnam, about 13 km from the exact antipodal point — most of the Earth's surface opposite any given point is open ocean, so an exact land match is rare.
