Lima, Peru: South America's Gastronomic Capital and Historical Treasure
Lima, Peru, situated in the desert on the Pacific coast, is the capital and largest city of Peru and an important cultural and economic center of South America. With a history of nearly 500 years, this ancient city is a blend of Indian, Spanish, African and Asian cultures. The Old Town, which was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1991, features a mix of colonial architecture and modern high-rise buildings. Lima is also known as the "capital of gastronomy", with fresh seafood, traditional lemon ceviche, and Peruvian Lomo Saltado attracting diners from all over the world. Thanks to its desert climate, it enjoys a mild year-round climate with an average annual temperature of around 19°C, making it an ideal gateway for exploring Peru's history and flavor, as well as an important trade hub connecting South America with the Asia-Pacific region.
