- New to Peru? There are so many things about Lima, Peru that totally shocked us as foreigners traveling here for the first time. We will take you to explore the different districts/neighborhoods in Lima to see what it is like here and why it's visited by many tourists. In this video, we will also show you some of the most amazing places to see, our favorite places in the city; Where to go, what to eat. If you are planning to travel to Peru and have Lima on your list, this is the travel video for you. Knowing what you can expect from Lima, Peru is important to better plan your vacation/trips. Exploring Lima was actually one of the highlights of our trip. From culture, food, people, scenery, it literally has everything to offer everyone. The main first impression in Lima that you will get is that you will probably shock/surprise on how diverse the city is. If you visit the historic center of Lima you will get the total different feeling from when you visit Barranco or Miraflores.
All in all, we wish you find this video helpful to give you a glimpse of what you can expect to experience in Lima, Peru either one day trip, short term or long term travel.
ABOUT LIMA, PERU:
Lima (/ˈliːmə/, Spanish pronunciation: [ˈlima]; Quechua: Limaq) is the capital and the largest city of Peru. It is located in the valleys of the Chillón, Rímac and Lurín rivers, in the central coastal part of the country, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Together with the seaport of Callao, it forms a contiguous urban area known as the Lima Metropolitan Area. With a population of more than 9 million, Lima is the most populous metropolitan area of Peru and the third-largest city in the Americas (as defined by "city proper"), behind São Paulo and Mexico City.

▶︎ We Spent A Night In Peru, And It Was Absolutely Incredible 🇵🇪(EPIC Peruvian Street Food) : bit.ly/2Uni8WG
Its one of yhe last places Corona has not visited yet. God please protect the third world countries.
Seems that Peru is closing its borders due to the C-word. Stay safe!
“Agua y manzana” that’s the name of the drink. It literally means, “Water and Apple” as in, their version of apple juice I think 😅
It got shutdown and lot of robbery...
@@warlockhaseo3642 No hobbos living in the streets like LA.
Lima, Peru is rich in culture. We tried Peruvian food and it was really delicious.
It really is amazing!
It's quite better than cuban food and now mexican food. Peruvian if I can get it is some of the best food around the world I'd say with India, Jamaica, and Hawaii. I also think Peru chinese food is real good. The spare ribs don't have an overkill amount of that red glaze. I like it just not in overdrive.
The sunset in Miraflores is the best !!!
It was incredible!
The ceviche in Lima. Miraflores specifically is next level OMG!!
It really is :)
San isidro is another level!
Miraflires and S Isidro are for the rich. Its not authentic!
@@spanishmasterpieces5203 Miraflores is mostly middle class. The only "rich" part would be the one facing the coast.
I love Miraflores. Hands down my most favorite destination to date.
Its one of ours as well!
I'm glad you like my city ❤
once the pandemic is over my friend rents a place right by the faro in that area in miraflores
Watch out for the delinquents who come to Miraflores from all parts of Lima to con and rob the tourists. And the prostitutes are all over the place.
@@57rrg funny how I stayed in Miraflores and didn’t notice a single prostitute or scammer.
¡Muy lindo Perú! Thanks for showing us your first impressions of our brothers down in Peru. Greetings from Mexico City.
Thank you so much!
Wow the building are awesome love the cool architecture never seen anything like that before. The coastline there is awesome nice scenery. The food looks amazing too. Some of that artwork is awesome
It really is! We loved it!
Perú es genial!! Perú is awesome,
I think the cliffs of Miraflores are stunning and this place of Lima is far better than Santa Monica, CA
Lime looks historical and culturally strong.
It really is!
Of course we are but that's just part of it.
Is Lima not lime there is not English pronunciation for Lima the Capitals of Peru 🇵🇪just FYI
Outside of Miraflores and San Isidro it is trashy and very poor. I know I live here.
@@57rrg Barranco, Jesus Maria, La Molina, Surco, Magdalena del Mar, La Punta,
Lima is a Beautiful city . I want to go there again.
Thank you for beautiful video of Lima. I feel like I'm there.
So happy to hear that! Thats what we were going for!
just now I dream of peru without knowing what its like in peru so I search how to live in peru until I ended up here it's beautiful!!! i love this vlog
I only have friends that go there for mission trips. This is a side I have never seen and it is a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing.
Its a really beautiful place! We enjoyed this city a lot :)
Good food and beautiful city of miraflores, Peru has a lot of future!
I love the way that you show my city
Lima looks promising, guys. I swear i'm gonna follow your footsteps. I already traveled to Mexico after watching your videos and now this... Go further south please :) It's far from the Philippines so it'll be expensive but it's doable i guess. Looking forward for more of Peru vlogs.
You should! We cant wait to hear what you think!
....saludos de Brasil para nostros hermanos/amigos peruanos!!!!!!......viva Peru!!!!!
Ramos??
🙏
Que hermoso video de mi país, felicidades y gracias por su visita ❤
Lima peru is such an awesome city, really underrated!🇵🇪❤️
I hope you are right, i have plans to go but from looking at their video it look quite tired.
There was one older lady in the video she had some serious dance moves 💃🏽 loved the energy of this place
another happy place to visit. looks like a lot fun. waiting for Ta's food critiques...
Hahaha coming soon to a screen near you
Wonderful video! Our whole family sits down to enjoy your content. thank you!
Thats amazing! We are so happy hearing that!
Hello, despite the fact that there are many problems in Peru due to the lack of interest of the politicians and the president, we are workers and Kind I wish you a happy stay and I recommend you visit San Isidro🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪😍😍😍
Ahh we love it here!
As soon as you brought it up, I noticed, you definitely could pass as Peruvian lol. Hey, not a bad thing, they'll think you're a local and get charged local prices haha. Hope the quarentine didn't put too much of a damper on your travel plans. Hope you get a chance to visit the rest of the country, be safe.
Until she opens her mouth to speak
Thank you for showing us Lima Peru its beautiful..hopefully I will go soon 🥰
Thanks you , I love Perú 🇵🇪
Lindo Peru su comida y su gente muy lindo
amazing - always so enjoyable to watch - you really know how to capture the essence of a place i feel
🥰
My husband from Lima, Peru . I Wish one day to visit my husband homeland. 😍
Im from Almaty, Kazakhstan. We are
Live in New Jersey . US
he was saying hot dog a lot and no one noticed LOL
hahahhahaha
Lima is such a vibrant and beautiful city..the cliffside of miraflores is truly amazing
Wow you´re right Tah, we peruvians look so much like people from southeast asia, like Thailand or the Philippines. That´s something I never noticed before xD. I think the reason for that is because peruvians have a big percentage of amerindian ancestry. Even the average peruvian mestizo (mixed race between spanish and native) has at least 65% percent od indigenous dna. As far as I know, the ancestors of modern natives americans came from asia, so maybe that´s why both groups look so much alike.
Great video by the way. I'll try watch all your videos about Peru from now on. See you later xD.
not true at all..natives american dont look like asian south or east asian..is a false myth
i.imgur.com/Ke6hTsk.jpg
i.imgur.com/XjFUMMu.jpg
check does pics
and peruvian dont look like southasian ....peru is a multiculture country..and you will find many race mix..even afroblacks it depends in what area state
i will say this tho..that only eskimal indians from alaska may look oriental.beacuase of how close east asia and alaka is.
not amerindians from mexico to peru they are different
peru did however had japonese and chinese migration in the past..for work labor on the farms and haciendas in the begin of 1900s
Ahh yea thats what we thought :) Thank you so much for watching!
In addition to what Yuraq said, there is also a large Japanese population in Peru. Peru established relations with Japan around the 1900s and a lot of immigrants went there for various reasons. Mostly farmers looking for land. Eventually, business people followed. Even Peru had a controversial Japanese-Peruvian president (Fujimori). Other Japanese went to Brazil too. So you have a mix of indigenous Indians and immigrant Asians looking for opportunities.
@@xtremegold2950 I´m not so sure of that. You´re right about that we are a multicultural country, but that doesn´t mean that the genetic composition is equal for each group in Peru. According to many genetic studies, specifically one made by national geographic, the average inhabitants of Lima have 68% indigenous blood, however there are many other genetics studies done in Peru where the native componenet is as high as 80%. We have to take into consideration that Lima is the peruvian city which has received the most of the migrations waves from Europe during the times of the colony and the first decades of our republican history. This would imply that the indigenous indians are the group that has contributed the most to the peruvian genetic pool. So yeah, you´re right, culturally we have a lot influence from different parts of the world like Africa, Europe and East Asia, we have adopted many customs, but genetically the majority of us are still predominantly indigenous. Of course, "majority" doesn´t mean "everyone", not at all. I myself have seen many afroperuvians when I traveled to the distric of El Carmen (in Chincha, Ica) and many white people wherever I go in Miraflores district (in Lima). There´s even a little town in the jungled called Pozuso (in oxapampa, Cerro de Pasco), created by german inmigrants in 1859. Of course, as you mentioned before, we also received many waves of asian inmegrants, mainly chineses and japaneses, but the fact remains the same, we are mostly indigenous. Speaking of indigenous people, it seems like you think that every native group in the americas share the same physical characteristics among them, which is far from the truth, specially taking into consideration that many of these people lived in very different geographic conditions, developing different features to adapt to the environment. After all, is different living in the andes that living in the amazon rainforest or the desertic coastline. Taking this in consideration, it´s not strange that some native groups look more similar to their asian ancestors than others. After all, even Tah, a thai girl, recognized that *A LOT OF* peruvians (not *ALL* ) look like thai people, so there must be some truth on it. I do not intend to hurt any group or imply that one group is superior to other with this message, I just try to give more information about the complex situation of the genetics of peruvians, as well as the roots of our culture. We wouldn´t be peruvians without the great contribution of spanish conquistadors, italian inmigrants, african slaves and chinese workers to our gastronomy, religious practices, dances, customs or instruments.....We´re a mix of different races and we have to feel proud of it. *SOURCES* (some of them are in english and others in spanish): diariocorreo.pe/peru/limenos-son-68-indigenas-segun-national-geographic-744147/?ref=dcr / peru21.pe/lima/limenos-son-68-indigenas-revela-national-geographic-73148-noticia/?ref=p21r / www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/05/study-short-peruvians-reveals-new-gene-major-impact-height / www.nature.com/articles/jhg201373.pdf?origin=ppub / th-cam.com/video/Bt1ygYfUpQ0/w-d-xo.html / th-cam.com/video/dpE7-sQos9M/w-d-xo.html / th-cam.com/video/s4GfOtXjC-o/w-d-xo.html / th-cam.com/video/xZLmlLGUmec/w-d-xo.html /
LIMA isn't dangerous nor is Peru as a whole. Honestly the worst thing that will happen to you is getting mugged & thats if youre in a bad neighborhood at night
Exelente video de la capital del Perú - Lima
Peruvian Food is so delicious 🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
🇵🇪🇵🇪♥️
Te vas a morir si sigues comiendo comida peruana tradicional
I want to visit Peru. Such a beautiful country. Hopefully this year I want to visit South America as a whole.
🌟The historic district is a hotbed of amazing stone building architecture that is like no other. I feel it would be a wonderful experience to visit. It would be nice to venture out of the tourist area and see the real lifestyle and meet some great people and get a home cooked meal. I thought it was cute when Tah had the sunbeam flower in her hair🏵. Well Jim you both have a great time. I will back track and catch up on what I missed in your videos. Heart is getting better and I am getting out more and taking picture 📸 Be happy, be healthy, have fun. Peace🦋
Stay healthy and thank you so much for the love and support!
Viajare muy pronto que emocion 😍😍
Love watching edward norton explore peru
Your Lima videos are therapeutic for me right now, taking me back to my trip to Peru and reminding me of so many great moments, meanwhile, I'm actually at home in Los Angeles hahah
Ahh we are home in New York as well haha
Ever been to the Inca Gourmet in Lawndale?
The drink's name is Agua de Manzana, translated literally is Apple's water.
So so so good!
This is definitely somewhere we’re excited to explore! Be safe guys! Travel is super risky right now! Where will you guys be based to “hunker down”?
We will head back to Rochester :) Upstate NY
Excelente, Perú rica en cultura y gastronomía ❤ 🎉
Very nice video. You guys have a nice presence and a good eye for interesting scenes. Thanks.
also the reason you probably had people saying that you would get confused for a peruvian (you do look peruvian by the way, if i saw you on the street here i would assume you were peruvian maybe from the rainforest/jungle region of the country) is because of the high indigenous admixture in many peruvians and obviously the indigenous peoples thousands of years ago came from asia, so its common to see asian features as well as the immigration we had from china and japan in the 1800-1900's which contributed greatly to that. so basically a lot of peruvians have semi asian features from the indigenous and also more recent asian admixture but are on the darker/tanner skinned side due to geographic location obviously, thus many peruvians looking quite thai.
🙄🙄🙄🙄
C.Dolorier im half peruvian and half afghan and i do get mistaken for chinese,japanese,thai,filipino,indonesian-
She is not peruvian.
@@isabellediaz2281 yeah she isn’t but she kept getting confused for peruvian lol
@@olimac909A little
My country 👏👏👏🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I know someone from chat who lives in Lima. I sent her the link to this video. I told her if you guys are still there maybe she can meet you. Her name is Linda as in the Spanish word for pretty. If there's a lock down due to coronavirus maybe you guys could stay by Linda.
Ahh thank you so much! We are already out of Peru but your thought means a lot!
@@DivertLiving you guys are on the move, Hard to stop you all. Seems like a lot of countries are on lock down. Hopefully you don't get caught up and stuck in one place in a lock down due to the coronavirus.
Wow beautiful video👌💕
Saludos desde Perú💟
As long as tai doesn’t speak with childish voice, she’s awesome!
hahaha shes awesome no matter what :)
Divert Living hey there! That’s rude
Thing to say!

El centro histórico es muy hermoso. Así como el malecón de Miraflores
you guys are great - cool
I enjoyed these videos, thank you for visiting my country, you're welcome back anytime. I hope that you've enjoyed your staying here. Oh and I love that Tah is from Thailand because it's not that common for Thai people to come to Peru, so thank you again!!!
We did enjoy it so so much!
Guys, ceviche in miraflores is good but not the best. You should try in another districts of Lima. I’m from Peru
lima looks pretty relaxed and gorgeous! can't wait to check it out in november
Outside of a few areas, in reality it's a disorganized dirty city.
@@57rrg we actually cancelled the trip to Peru anyway, but this is great to know for the future.
he was saying "salchicha" which is like the meat (sausage?) inside of the hot dogs! He was also trying to say "corn dog" and yall thought he was saying bean lol. Peru looks beautiful !!!
I suggest to you to go to "Villa María del triunfo" , "SJM , "Villa el salvador" you can see my Lima where I live.
Mi país Perú 🇵🇪 muy hermoso
Esto es Perú señores 😍
How does South America compare to SE Asia so far? I'm thinking of getting an elite visa and just moving to Thailand, but I've yet to see the Americas so I don't want to feel like there are better environments elsewhere.
Ahh you have to see them all before you choose to move:) They are different in but beautiful!
I think its the same amount of poverty but much more dangerous. In se asia you can be in whatever neighborhood and be chill, but in south america not
Agua De Manzana. water of apple/Apple juice
So so so good!
Hermoso mi Perú
Increíble
Excellent video thanks for sharing
I love Lima Peru
Peru es un lugar hermoso
Agua = water, Manzana = Apple
Agua y manzana = water and apple.

@@DivertLiving I think it's great that you guys are still out traveling despite all the corona nonsense! hahah

La bella cadena lima toda una experiencia
Wao
Perú tiene lindos lugares cómo el cusco, lima, Trujillo, Piura sus ricas playas
Mi Perú es muy hermoso

Peru, pais con unade las mejores gastronomias
Mi lima querido
FUN FACT: The "weird" pine tree you saw, I think is a Norfolk Pine (originally from Norfolk Island between New Zealand and Australia). These are quite common as ornamentals but they have very similar ancient ancestors that were the dominant trees in the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods (150-65 million years ago). Think dinosaur food. :D
Correct! It's an Araucaria heterophylla aka Norfolk Island Pine
Lo.mejor
Genial video
I think people in peru is kind too
Saludos desde Lima Perú Bro
Nice video!
"Finding Nemo in Peru" and "Sponge Bob and Patrick in the Q n A"... lol
Seems like tourism is coming back up, for anyone visiting Peru please support local indigenous native owner businesses and Afro peruvian business owners! This is very important to us if you are traveling in Peru. I have seen posts for the support for black businesses and small businesses. If you are traveling abroad (or plan to in the near future) please think of supporting primarily or mostly the indigenous native business owners and Afro peruvian business owners such as the traditional cholitas and cholitos that are street food vendors or have pop up / small shops , and or who are also craftsmen as well, tour guides, dancers, musicians, singers, artists, vendors etc. It would mean a lot from your support to our Afro peruvian business owners community and our indigenous community. I will say that our governments and populations are mostly racists / colorists and don’t support whatsoever these two communities to a higher platform to what they deserve compare to the light skin mestizo Latino / Latina folks (white privileged folks). I would hope that if I write about it to shed more light on this , all I can hope for is for those that decide to travel in the future can think about eating or obtaining some sort of service interest to you think about obtaining it from these two beautiful communities that are the heart of our culture.
Buen video
Superb good to watching
Great video and Peru looks like a nice place to live.You guys are lucky to be over there because the coronavirus is scaring everyone and they are buying toilet paper and paper towels and groceries in general and the store shelves are bare. Schools are closing and all major sports are shutting down. Love you two,stay safe and enjoy your travels.
It really is! We are actually getting ready to come back stateside, pretty much everything is shutting down world wide
@@DivertLiving Hi guys ,yes its really getting bad they are even closing schools and some businesses.The president is even stopping airline flights from some countries so make sure if you coming stateside that they dont put you in quarantine.
Please keep in touch and stay safe@@DivertLiving
Nice
Hermosos lugares no solamente lima es perú
Like it
In this 2 year came to Peru a lot of Wild Venezuelan people only they have stole so many turists.. becareful to you next trip to Peru. be alerte everwhere you go. Open eyes.
Ahh yes we are always very careful, Thank you so much!
Stop It hating people by nationality.
Yep. Be careful with the camera you've got. Lima can be a bit tricky especially for us with the gringo-face. I tend to go as low-key as possible and only take my old iPhone 5s with me. And only take trusted taxis using services on your phone. Things have deteriorated further with the Venezuelan people in Lima.
Lot of Vnz people in Lima
