Lima

अवलोकन

Lima is the city travellers used to skip on the way to Cusco and now plan trips around: a food scene that has put Peruvian cooking on the world's map, from ceviche counters to the restaurants on every global list, a cliff-top district (Miraflores and Barranco) above the surf, pre-Inca pyramids inside the city, a colonial centre of carved balconies, and a grey winter sky (the garua) that locals apologise for and visitors barely notice. Prices are moderate; the Pacific swell is year-round.

यहाँ क्यों जाएं

For the best eating in the Americas, surf in the city, and the gateway to Peru's mountains, desert and jungle.

मौसम और घूमने का सबसे अच्छा समय

A desert coast with almost no rain: summer (December to April) is sunny and humid with highs of 26 to 28°C; winter (June to October) is grey, damp and cool (18 to 19°C) under the garua fog, though it never really rains. The surf is year-round.

सबसे अच्छा समय: December to April for sun; the grey months are fine for food and city life and cheaper.

सुरक्षा

Miraflores, Barranco and San Isidro are safe by day and reasonably at night; phone and bag theft, express kidnapping in unlicensed taxis (apps only), and protests downtown are the risks; avoid Callao and the outer districts.

सामान्य धोखाधड़ी

Counterfeit soles in change, taxi overcharging and routes, ATM skimming, pickpockets on the Metropolitano, and 'closed' attractions.

कनेक्टिविटी और दूरस्थ कार्य

Good fibre in Miraflores, Barranco and San Isidro (50 to 200 Mbps); coworking at Comunal, WeWork, Selina and many cafes; Claro and Movistar 4G are fine.

A liveable, well-connected base on US Eastern time with fast fibre in the coastal districts and a growing community; the grey winter and the lack of a nomad visa are the limits, and the food is the daily reward.
