Most tourists come to Peru with the idea that Lima is just one more capital and there is nothing to be seen there. If you are one of those, please let us tell you why we do not agree with you.
First of all, the Lima culture ruled Lima from 200 to 700 AC. They built many cities and ceremonial centers. One of these ceremonial centers is known as Huaca Pucllana. This ceremonial center has well preserved plazas and a perfect pyramid. This tourist attraction is open daily. Your hotel will be located in Miraflores where Huaca Pucllana is located.
If you are interested in archeology, the ruins of Pachacamac have to be seen. This is the biggest ceremonial center built by the Lima Culture.
Once Peru was conquered by the Spaniards, the Viceroyalty of Peru became the most important Viceroyalty of America. On January the 18th of 1535, Francisco Pizarro founded Lima and since then a new culture was initiated. In downtown, it is possible to observe the unique architecture and art created by this new culture.
Modernity has brought to Lima modern malls such as the Jockey Plaza and the beautiful Larcomar located in Miraflores, close to your hotel. It has also brought the biggest water fountain of the world located in a public park.
If adventure is what you are looking for, paragliding is available in Miraflores. A flight of one and a half hours will let you enjoy the boulevard, Larcomar, and Miraflores.
Finally, Lima and the Pacific Ocean will provide you amazing views and sunsets during the summer season as well as the best of the famous Peruvian seafood.
For all these reasons, please take a look at our packages to enjoy Lima with a company that you can trust in.
