Introduction to Lima
What else are you going to use to complement a Corona? With a population of around 8.3 million Peruvians, it would certainly be sufficient limeage to prevent scurvy. Mexico's national export aside-Peru's citron capital is the world's 9th largest city, sandwiched between Istanbul and Mexico City. Perched in the valleys of the Chillon and the Lurin river, Lima is South America's second biggest metropolis after Sao Paulo, Brazil. A center of political commerce and capital investment, Lima overlooks the Pacific Ocean, blending modern skyscrapers with 16th C. Spanish influences. Dubbed the "City of Kings" during the apex of the Spanish Empire, Lima maintains its regal distinctions. The culinary traditions are established gastronomic eloquence, and the city breathes a flowing, musical charm. Sample the ripe rapture of the jungle at the Mercado De Frutas, and get nicely antiquated at the Museo De Historia Natural, Peru's best natural history museum. Finally, treat yourself to the platinum plates of Peru at Cebichería La Mar, the city's flashiest eatery.
