It has been said that Lima is the gastronomic capital of Latin America; that its restaurants conquer gourmets and top international lists; that a long time ago, at the beginning of the Colony, was the City of the Kings; that its Historic Center, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has an intense concentration of colonial churches and republican buildings that excite you with their architecture; which is a city of contrasts in every corner; that has a millenary past, evident in the huacas dotted throughout the city that, in addition, remind us in the midst of so much cement and very tall buildings, that it is a capital with memory; that is eaten exquisitely in markets, huariques or in haute cuisine spaces; that the eight kilometers of Miraflores boardwalk, between parks and gardens, are the epicenter of healthy outdoor living for hundreds
of people; that its citizens can go down to the beaches of the Costa Verde after lunch, or paraglide off the cliff, like someone escaping from urban routines, because its climate is indecipherable as friendly; that its artists, those who are there and those who are not, have made it their own in museums, galleries and murals; who admire their chefs like soccer stars; that its writers have conjured avenues, landscapes and spaces in immortal pages.
Bustling, partying, enjoyable, ancestral, foodie, multicultural.
That is the Lima of today, respectful of its tradition, jealous of its history. Welcome everyone.
Nature and Adventure
Can you imagine walking in the middle of nature and discovering monuments with human shapes, surfing on the waves of the Pacific Ocean or flying over the coastal sky with a privileged view of the city? The capital of Peru not only offers you history and culture at every step, but also invites you to live experiences full of action and adventure that will make your stay unforgettable.
Surfing in the Pacific
Being the only South American capital with access to the sea, Lima is home to a beach circuit called the Costa Verde, whose high-quality waves invite national and foreign surfers to have a fun time. Likewise, 40 km south of the city there are resorts such as Punta Hermosa, San Bartolo, Señoritas and Caballeros, where national and world board championships are commonly held, attended by the best surfers from around the planet. The waves on these beaches can reach three meters high, although they are also suitable for beginners.
Paragliding on the Costa Verde boardwalk
One of the most visited tourist attractions that Lima has is its boardwalk; an extensive walk that borders the cliffs of the Costa Verde and whose privileged view of the immense bay is a reason to visit for thousands of Lima residents and tourists. Many of them arrive at the Parapuerto located in Raimondi Park to fly over the city and feel the pure adrenaline from the heights.
Night life
Discover the fascinating nightlife of Lima, where the city comes to life with vibrant lights and contagious energy.
