The capital of Peru combines coast and desert in striking highway landscapes flanked by cliffs and beach. Dense and delightful, Lima piques your curiosity with intriguing sights, from Pucllana Temple's vestiges of Incan glory to the variety of Spanish architectural styles in its monasteries and palaces. With annual religious processions at Las Nazarenas Sanctuary, Lima's experiences are as diverse as its cultures and cuisines, including anticuchos skewers and mazamorra pudding.
