veglimabeans.jpgAt one time, Lima, Peru was the place to be in South America. Founded as the City of Kings by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro in 1535, for three centuries Lima was the administrative center for Spain’s possessions in South America.

Today, Lima is not the center of South American life, but it is still an excellent city to visit. With more than one-third of Peru’s population, Lima has 8.2 million people. Lima’s climate is quite mild, despite being located in the Tropics. The average low temperatures range from 58°F (14°C) to 68°F (20°C) and the highs average around 78°F, with 32°C (90°F) considered extremely high.

In 1998, the historic old town in Lima was designated an UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Plaza Mayor, with the 16th century Cathedral and the Presidential Palace, and the catacombs of the Convento de San Francisco are a must-see for any visitor to the Peruvian capital.

The good news for those looking to travel to Peru is that you don’t need to be a king to be able to afford to fly there. TACA has some excellent round-trip flights to Lima, Peru that make the city very, very accessible, especially if you factor in how cheaply one can stay and eat in the city.
