BAP Abtao
Lima
local gems
Lima, Peru's capital, rewards those who look beyond the obvious. The Basilica of Nuestra Señora de la Merced and the Santuario de Santa Rosa de Lima sit quietly within the historic centre, while the Monastery of San Francisco draws visitors into its atmospheric catacombs. Along the Costa Verde, the Goddess Feme sculpture and the German Tower offer quieter moments away from the crowds. A stroll along Avenida Nicolás de Piérola puts daily city life on full display, and the retired warship BAP Abtao provides an unexpected glimpse into Peru's naval history.
