Nightlife of Miraflores

If people want to go out and experience the nightlife in Peru, Lima is surely a must-visit. While there are bars all over the city, most of them are in Barranco, Miraflores, and the historic center. Plenty of music and dancing places can be found in Pizza Street in Miraflores or La Plaza in Barranco. Peruvians don’t go out until about 11 pm, so plan on staying out late. The city also has fancy boutique bars such as Ayahuasca, which is an old colonial-style mansion that’s turned into a carnival-fun-house bar on three stories.

If they head east from the plaza, people can also find Palacio Arzobispal, which has ornate Moorish-style balconies. It’s surely something unique in Peruvian architecture. In the northeast is Palacio de Gobierno, which is a grand Baroque-style building that is also the residence of the president of Peru.
