Lima Peru might not be South America’s most beautiful city, but with excellent museums, interesting historic attractions, friendly people and plenty more to offer, it is surely worthy of exploration. Most visitors to Peru will find themselves in the country’s capital at some point during their Peru vacation. Good thing that there are plenty of options for Lima hotels, covering all sorts of budgets. Backpackers will appreciate the city’s hostels, while the more discerning traveler will likely opt for the more luxurious accommodations. If you plan on spending more than a day or so in Lima, then deciding when to go will help you better enjoy your time here. Unfortunately, Lima is known for being covered in fog most of the year. Roughly from April to November, a gray cloud known as the garúa settles in over the city, making for a rather dull setting. But, from December to April, the sun shines in the country’s largest city, and it is during these hot and humid moSnths that the bulk of Limeños hit the nearby Peru beaches.
Shantytowns lie on the fringes of the city, and basically the infrastructure of Lima could not adequately keep up with its growth. You will notice poverty on a Lima Peru vacation, but that’s true of most anywhere you will go in South America. As for positives, Lima Peru has many. The city boasts some of the best dining you will find on the entire continent, and its museums are ideal for exploring Peru’s culture and history.
Museums of interest include the Museo de la Nación, where you can learn about past civilizations, and the Rafael Larco Herrera Museum, where you can observe the largest private collection of pre-Colombian art in the world. Relaxing in the central Plaza de Armas in Lima Peru is a pleasure if you like to people watch, and it is here where you will find yellow buildings integral to the government, not to mention the historic Cathedral where the body of Pizarro rests. Of significant interest in the Plaza de Armas is the bronze fountain, which dates back to around 1650. A Lima tour can be a great way to learn about the city, and guided tours at museums like the Museo de la Inquisición are particularly rewarding.

Although the guide did not mention it, we saw surfers off the Miraflores beach. I understand there is also parasailing and such activities off the cliffs. (photo 4). The beach itself isn't that attractive.

At the end of our exiting holidays in Peru, we went also on a nice Horseback ride trip. We went over sand dunes, through villages, belong some facturies and over the beaches back to the stables. We rid on the Peruvian Paso Horse which is Peruvian breed and known for its smooth ride. The landowners centuries ago, breeded them this way becuase they needed to travel for hours to check their lands and didn't want to get tired to quickly. Well, you need some riding experience and if you have you could consider this, in our opinion, unique ride. Also worth mentioning that the horses are very well taken care.

Lima is not an idillic place for Pacific Ocean beaches. Anyway, if you are in need, the best beaches in town are those in Miraflores and Barranco. They are black pebbles beaches, narrow and not very pleasant for sunbathing, as they get crowded in summer. For better beaches, you have to go out of Lima, like Punta Hermosa, San Bartolo, Pico Alto or Punta Rocas. Though there are public buses, hiring a car wuld be a good option for a daytrip there.
