Very beautiful the capital of Peru
Visiting the lime city is fantastic because you know about its neighborhoods, its indosincracy, visit the beautiful and romantic love park, see the imposing huaca pucllana, and then describe the capital of the ancient Viceroyalty of Peru, visiting its convents, houses and a very rich history !!

So much to take in.
Get a guide. You’ll miss so much if you don’t. The old city is a pedestrian zone and lovely to wander round. If you’re doing a tour of the city, make sure you go to the pyramid. There are free walking tours of the city…however, we couldn’t find them.
