Barranco

I haven't started travelling around Peru yet, but I have been getting to know some parts of Lima.  Lately I have been staying in Barranco, a trendy neighborhood with great restaurants and night life.  I love it because there are some great views of the Pacific Ocean.

The most famous landmark in Barranco is the Punto de los Suspiros, the Bridge of Sighs.  I'm not sure of the story behind it, but apparently it's a romantic place to take someone on a first date.  



Barranco is full of museums too-my favorites being the ChocoMuseo and the Museum of Electricity.

  1. A museum for chocolate-what a wonderful idea. It would be a favorite for me, too. A great Christmas gift idea for mom (hint, hint!)
