Many travelers to Peru tend to skip over Lima as they rush off to more scenic destinations,

but we’re of the opinion that the capital has a lot to offer.

As one of the largest cities in South America, Lima can be a little chaotic and crowded,

but it is also full of surprises, especially in terms of culinary experiences and historic

In this travel video guide, we’re going to take you on a tour of the city and show

The love park is a beautiful park located in the neighborhood of Miraflores that looks

Due to its name, it’s a popular spot with couples out on a date, especially around sunset

If you’re up for a little bit of adventure, you can also go paragliding.

You don’t need to have any experience since they offer tandem flights.

And even if this doesn’t seem like your type of activity, it’s still pretty cool

to go as a spectator to watch people take off the cliff.

We come to this restaurant pretty often whenever we're in Lima.

This place is called Punto Azul and they make a delicious ceviche and some pretty tasty

dishes that we're going to be sampling today.

We're actually ordering all of our favorite dishes at this restaurant, so it should be

So I ordered the exact same thing every time I come to Punto Azul.

It is only fish, no other seafood in there and we've got our red onions.

I also asked for it spicy so you can see the red peppers here.

Um, you have your sweet potato, fresh corn and of course the tiger's milk.

Which is basically like a lemon base that helps cure the fish.

I just love all of the flavors in your mouth.

Like it is so sour and tart but then you've got your sweet potato to kind of help balance

Yes, and you can't come Punto Azul and not indulge in the seafood but I'm trying something

that is kind of unique to here and that is the shrimp cheese risotto.

This rivals the risottos you find in Italy.

It is just so so so cheesy and then you have the shrimp and then you have all of the different

Like to me this is my favorite dish in Lima right now.

Yes, I did but I'm going to get a bigger one this time.

For a little bit of magic, another fun activity to try at night is to go to Parque de la Reserva

It’s a popular activity with families, but it can be enjoyed by all ages.

So dinner time here in Lima and tonight we are going out for anticuchos, which are cow

I know this sounds a little bit unusual but it is actually really tasty so we've come

It is called La Grimanesa, we've already placed our order.

So this place that we're visiting it actually started as a little street stand, so the women

who opened the restaurant used to have a little cart and she used to sell her anticuchos on

the street and she had a super long line because her food was delicious.

And eventually she was able to save up enough money to open a little restaurant here in

So yeah, humble beginnings, but you know the recipe was great so here we are today.

It doesn't really look like a cow's heart in my opinion.

I mean, you could food me and tell me this is steak but I'm going to have my first bite.
