Welcome To Lima, Peru!

The City

Lima, the capital of Peru, is a vibrant city where ancient history meets modern sophistication. Overlooking the Pacific Ocean, it offers a unique blend of pre-Columbian heritage, colonial architecture, and contemporary urban life. Known as the gastronomic capital of South America, Lima is home to some of the world’s top-ranked restaurants and a rich culinary tradition rooted in diverse cultural influences — from Incan and Spanish to Chinese and Japanese.

The city’s coastal district of Miraflores, where the event will take place, is one of the safest and most cosmopolitan areas, offering stunning ocean views, boutique hotels, world-class dining, art galleries, and lively parks. With its mild weather, welcoming locals, and deep cultural legacy, Lima is the perfect destination to combine personal transformation with travel exploration.
