LIMA CITY
 
Lima is a South American capital that is often overlooked by tourists who often use it as a jump-off point for trips to Cusco and the Amazon rainforest. However, to skip Lima is to miss seeing a city with history dating back thousands of years - a city trying to mix rapid economic growth with an ancient culture. Lima is full of friendly, generous people, and has a wide range of daytime and nighttime activities, beautiful coastlines, bustling financial centers, and some of the best food in the country.

Lima, the capital of Peru, is a cosmopolitan city combining modernity with historical and cultural richness. Located on the central coast of Peru, 500 meters above sea level, it is connected with the principal cities of the world through daily direct flights and connections. Declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1991, Lima is a city that offers all tourist services, the most varied cultural and nightlife entertainment in the country, some of the best cuisine of the Americas, and the entryway to all the natural, archaeological and historical tourist attractions of Peru.
