Discover the vibrant city of Lima, where history and culture intertwine seamlessly. St Rosa De Lima, the patron saint of Peru, watches over this bustling metropolis. As you stroll through the Plaza de Armas, your eyes are drawn to the magnificent Cathedral Of Lima, a 16th-century masterpiece that stands proudly in Plaza Mayor. UNESCO has recognized its significance as a symbol of Peru's rich heritage. In Barranco, San Francisco church welcomes visitors with its stunning architecture and serene atmosphere. The district's charm extends to the coast of Miraflores District, where you can witness breathtaking views along Costa Verde. The Pacific Cliffs offer an awe-inspiring backdrop for those exploring the Pan-American Highway. But our journey doesn't end here; we take a detour to Italy's Bagni di Lucca on the Lima River in Tuscany. Harry Fenn's wood engraving captures the beauty of Devil's Bridge perfectly—a testament to how rivers connect cultures across continents. Back in Peru, Plaza de la Inquisicion invites you to delve into dark chapters of history while admiring colonial architecture, and is impossible not to mention Francisco Pizarro—the Spanish conquistador who forever shaped Lima's destiny—his legacy still resonates throughout every corner. After immersing yourself in history and exploration, it is time for some indulgence at Museo del Pisco Bar. Treat yourself to a refreshing Pisco Sour cocktail—an iconic Peruvian drink that embodies both tradition and innovation.
