Lima
Modernity and tradition by the sea
Lima reflects great part of Peru’s immense wealth. Here, you could live unique experiences like practising extreme sports, having direct contact with nature, visiting millenary archaeological sites, colonial temples and buildings, or just relaxing at the boutique hotels or spas, where their bars and restaurants offer the best of the Peruvian cuisine.

Metropolitan Lima Lima is a city in a constant change where the contemporary lifestyle and the traditions from the pre-Columbian and Columbian times coexist. Morning Start your day taking a cup of coffee around Parque Kennedy, the main park in the Miraflores district. After that, visit the Historic Center of Lima which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site 1 : Plaza Mayor (Main square), San Francisco Church and its catacombs, the Cathedral, Plaza San Martín (San Martín square), among others.
Noon This time is perfect for stopping at one of the most traditional bars in the Historic Center for an aperitif: Cordano (Jr. Carabaya), Queirolo (Jr. Quilca), Hotel Maury’s bar (Jr. Ucayali), or the mythical Bar Inglés (English Bar) at Hotel Bolívar, in front of Plaza San Martín.
Lunch Visit the districts of Pueblo Libre, Miraflores or Barranco to taste the delicious Peruvian cuisine. Then, visit the Larco Museum 2 where an impressive collection of pre-Columbian pieces are displayed.
Afternoon Visit the residential district of San Isidro, take a stroll in the old and peaceful park El Olivar and visit the boutiques on Avenida Conquistadores and the majestic Huaca Huallamarca 3 . In Miraflores, you can visit the Huaca Pucllana 4 and then enjoy the impressive ocean view from the long promenade of this district experience. In Barranco, the district of bohemians and artists, you can visit Puente de los Suspiros (Bridge of Sighs) 5 , the handicraft stores, coffee shops, art galleries, as well as enjoy the beautiful sunset from the promenade.
Night Visit the Magic Water Circuit in Parque de la Reserva 6 . For dinner, choose any of the restaurants by the sea.
