When the fog surrounds the high rise buildings and the colonial facades, the enchantments in the city come across as way too subtle. After Cairo, another sprawling metropolitan city of Peru, Lima is also the second driest capital of the world. It rises above a coastline of crumbling cliffs, making it a great attraction for the thrill and adventure seekers. To best enjoy it, you must climb on the wave of the chaos which spans from the high rise condos that are located alongside the pre-Columbian temples as well as the fast Pacific breakers rushing towards the noisy chaos of the traffic.
Lima is a city dipped in sophistication and civilization which is deep rooted in the history of the city that is a millennia old. Edgy art of the galleries, sublime pottery displays in the stately museums, crowded nightclubs blaring tropical beats and the dignified religious processions giving a 18th century vibe, aptly describe Lima. No visitor must ever miss out on the culinary genius of the capital which is a quintessential part of the gastronomic revolution that is over 4 centuries old. This is Lima for you – Full of aesthetic delights yet dipped in shrouded history. Don’t even think of not coming here
