1 MIRAFLORES BOARDWALK 

Lima boasts 43 districts so don't press yourself to visit the whole city, but instead kick off your visit with a stroll along this six-mile 'malecón' in the affluent Miraflores neighbourhood, located south of the downtown area. This boardwalk, which runs along coastal cliffs that drop into the Pacific Ocean, is a hive of activity throughout the day. Locals run along the beach and surfers ride the waves in the morning haze, while the afternoon skies are dotted with paragliders swooping terrifyingly close to Miraflores' high-rises. Join Lima locals in their sporting endeavours, people-watch or embrace the urban oasis of Miraflores - after all, mirar translates to "look at" and flores means "flowers".
