City Night and Dinner and Show

Venture out at night to explore what the Spanish referred to as the “City of Kings.” On this nighttime tour, see the pale colonial buildings of historic Lima lit up in stark relief against the night sky. Once you’ve had your fill of colonial splendor, switch gears and experience the culture of provincial Peru with dinner and a show. The evening’s entertainment includes lively folk dances, and a buffet that showcases the best of local dishes.

These buildings have stood the test of time, not to mention the test of four earthquakes in the past century. At the Government Palace, admire the over-the-top neo-baroque architecture. But not even this dramatic structure will prepare you for the Archbishop’s Palace, an official building of the Roman Catholic diocese. Its intense façade harkens back to the medieval era, punctuated with sharply pointed design elements. You’ll also stop by Lima Cathedral and Plaza San Martin, a park that commemorates General Martin and his instrumental role in Peruvian independence from Spain.

Peru is home to many different types of indigenous musical and dance traditions. Across Peru, dancer’s outfits testify to the great textile talent of the native culture. Dyed with natural ingredients, their brightly-colored costumes have an energy all their own.

As part of the evening entertainment, you’ll eat your fill at a buffet of Peruvian dishes, made with a blend of indigenous ingredients and Spanish tastes. Flavored with spicy peppers, peanuts, and garlic, these recipes have stood the test of time, and remain a memorable experience for modern taste buds.
