On a typically cloudy wintery Sunday in Lima a couple of weeks ago I joined the "bike tours of Lima" group to visit the city in a more original and adventurous way. I was on my own and knew Lima a little bit and was curious on whether the Tour was going to be what I expected. Well it was all of that…

During the pre inca times, Lima was full of pyramids. Unfortunately, nowadays you can j…

One of the biggest attractions of Lima is that it's located in a cliff, which allows you to enjoy amazing views, sunsets, beaches, etc.

Located in a vice-royal mansion of a 18th century built over a 7th century pyramid surrounded by beautiful gardens.
This museum is more expensive than the other ones, because it shows a private but huge collection.
It's more focused on the Pre-Columbian history. Specially the Pre-Inca Civiliza…

A museum I highly recommend! There are some very cool exhibits here, Inca art and the pre-Inca artifacts. The entire history of Peru is explained here, more or less, from the earliest-known peoples of 0 BC to modern day Peru.
Lots of art displayed on practical items. The cups the Incas drank out …

It's really a beautiful location and has great energy. While the rest of Lima's definitely not a beautiful city, this park makes up for…
