Lima

The capital of Peru, where nearly a third of the Peruvian population is concentrated, has long been considered “the saddest city in the world”, to use the words of Herman Melville (author of Moby Dick).

However, by ignoring its winter mist to which it owes its image of a gloomy city, we discover an attractive city in many respects. Its historic center is full of museums and buildings to visit, witnesses of the cultural richness of the country.

Its booming culinary scene, its nightlife, and its small outlying villages will also seduce you during your visit to the region.
