A place to discover
Lima is located on the central coast of the country and is the only capital of South America with access to the Pacific Ocean.
Plan a trip hereAncient Peruvian heritage is visible in the city’s ceremonial centers, including Huaca Pucllana in Miraflores and Huaca Huallamarca in San Isidro. South of the city, the Pachacamac Archaeological Sanctuary served as the central coast’s main shrine for over a thousand years. Museums including the Larco Museum, the National Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, and the Art Museum of Lima offer deeper context.
Declared a Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 1991, Lima’s Historic Center preserves temples, old houses, squares and wooden balconies from the colonial and republican eras. Explore the Main Square, Plaza San Martín, the Cathedral, the Convent of San Francisco, Casa de Aliaga and other landmarks.
Miraflores and Barranco charm visitors. Miraflores is modern and cosmopolitan, with ocean views, paths and green spaces. Barranco is known for its bohemian, artistic life; colonial houses now hold bars and museums in one of Lima’s most creative neighborhoods.
Lima is considered the Gastronomic Capital of America. Coastal, highland and rainforest ingredients meet in a cuisine shaped by thousands of years of culinary technique. Try ceviche, pisco sour, anticuchos and chifa, and explore restaurants such as Central and Maido, recognized by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants.
