Lima Parks

Like the museums, this is another long list. I’ll just mention a few of the best, by neighborhood.

Miraflores: Parque Kennedy & Parque Central is my favorite place in the city, both during the day and evening. El Parque de Amor overlooks the Pacific ocean.

Lima center: El Parque de la Exposición was built in 1872 and has beautiful gardens, surrounded by museums. El Parque de la Reserva includes a waterpark and fountains. Nearby is El Camp de Marte is a giant park with monuments and a swimming pool.

San Isidro: Parque María Reiche overlooks the ocean and has floral gardens with representations of Nazca lines. El Olivar is a giant space planted with beautiful olive trees. Directly west, close to the coast, is the Pera de Amor, shaped like a pear.

Barranco: Parque Municipal was inaugurated in 1898. Plazuela Chabuca Granda is more of a plaza but still functions like a park.
