Cronache di Lima

Lima, the capital of Peru, was founded in 1535 by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro, who established it as the capital of the Viceroyalty of Peru. The city's rich history is still evident in its colonial architecture, with many buildings dating back to the 16th century. However, Lima has undergone significant modernisation in recent years, with a growing arts and cultural scene that reflects the city's blend of indigenous, Spanish, and African influences. The city's 18th-century Plaza de Armas is a must-visit, with its stunning cathedral and ornate fountain. Today, Lima is a bustling metropolis with a thriving food scene, earning it a reputation as the gastronomic capital of South America.
