We will continue our excursion by traversing the industrial sector of the nearby Villa El Salvador neighborhood. Our destination is the impressive Jockey Plaza Shopping Centre, the largest shopping venue in the city.
You'll have the opportunity to enjoy some leisure time exploring the high-end stores before immersing yourself in a genuine limeño? experience as we take the Lima metro to the Estación de la Cultura.
Upon our arrival at this metro station, we will witness the fascinating juxtaposition of the historical and the contemporary, evident in landmarks such as the Grand Theatre and the National Library of Peru.
