40 Vacations - Travel Guides - Destination Peru

Nightlife

Lima being the capital and largest city of the country, the nightlife can be thoroughly enjoyed here. Apart from the popular and ubiquitous disco, jazz, criollo, Latin, or rock music are also available for the discerning nightlife connoisseur. Barranco in Miraflores is the most happening place as far as nightlife is concerned. From a sleepy writers' or artists' community during the day, it is magically transformed into a rocking place at night. High-octane discos and clubs coexist with peñas and bars, which are a pleasure to be in especially facing the oceanfront.
