Lima Cathedral
The most important religious power during the colonial era was in the city of Lima and was presided over by this imposing cathedral. The front is impressive, the art and architecture that surrounds it is also impressive. There the main and oldest religious ceremonies are celebrated. The locals love to get married there. We will have the best panoramic view of the Cathedral for the best photos!
Basilica and Convent of Santo Domingo, Lima
This convent is considered the oldest in Southamerica which during the 17th century had the tallest tower in the whole continent, still these days works as convent and has and impressive facade.

The next spot to visit is the bohemian and artistic district of Barranco which is the smallest district of Lima. We will visit the “plaza”, the romantic and mysthical “Puente de los suspiros”.
