About Lima

Lima, capitale del Perù sulle scogliere sopra il Pacifico, unisce piazze coloniali, rovine preinca e una celebrata e vivace scena gastronomica.

Il centro storico, Patrimonio dell'Umanità UNESCO, ruota attorno alla Plaza Mayor, con la cattedrale, il Palazzo del Governo e il Palazzo dell'Arcivescovo dai balconi di legno intagliato. Il Monastero di San Francisco nasconde catacombe sotto la sua chiesa gialla, e le dimore coloniali che lo circondano ricordano le ricchezze del vicereame.

Top-ranked sights in Lima: Miraflores, Lima Plaza Mayor, Church and Convent of Saint Francis (Iglesia y Convento de San Francisco).
