GastronomyLima is the capital city of South American gastronomy. Its original menu inherited the very best of the Andean, Spanish, African, French, Italian, Chinese, and Japanese cuisines. Indulge yourself trying cebiche, causa, lomo saltado, or any captivating dessert. And toast with Peru’s national cocktail: Pisco sour.
ShoppingLima is the best place to buy handicrafts from every corner of the country as well as clothing made out of fine natural fibers such as alpaca, vicuña, and cotton. San Miguel, San Isidro, and Miraflores are the most popular districts for this kind of shopping.
Lima by Night Peñas are establishments where visitors can enjoy music and dances from the coast and the Andes of Peru.Lima’s nightlife can also be enjoyed at restaurants, bars, pubs, and discos.
All the faces, cultures, and flavors of Peru gather together in its capital city. Christened as “The City of Kings” by its Spanish founders back in 1535, Lima was the jewel of the Colonial Americas, and proof of that are its churches, convents, and mansions located in the Historic Center that still keep their distinction. Lima’s pre-Hispanic legacy is also remarkable for it was a place of worshipping of
singular transcendence. The city of Lima, which faces the sea, is modern, entertaining and, above all, gourmet. Its traditional and fusion cuisine restaurants make of a visit a delight for the senses. El Callao, its proud port city, also has architectural and natural treasures. Seafood cuisine is its signature specialty.
