Miraflores is the turistic district of Lima. The main hotels are located in this nice city by the Pacific ocean. During the last years, there have been a development of a huge offer of amenities, since fine cousine, fast food, cyber cafes (internet for less than a dollar per hour), until casinos, dancing, handcrafts, antiques flea markets, original paintings, cinemas, and much more.

The traditional Miraflores beach joins a lot of surfers as well as the riffs attracts windsurfers.

Miraflores also has an archeological site called Huaca Pucllana, which is a turistic place to visit and have a flavor of ancient cultures in the middle of the western culture.

For the modern mainstream, you can find Larco Mar which is a mall looking at the ocean, witha sunset that relax you.

The main travel agencies are in Miraflores with a huge offer of cities to visit in Peru. Even the main peruvian airlines have their offices in Miraflores.

However, the best way to enjoy your visit is renting a nice apartment (vacation rental) in a residential building. Full furnished, equipped and decorated, now it is the alternative for independent and business travellers.

For example, you can have a cozy one bedroom apartment for only US$220 for a week, two bedrooms for 4 persons for only US$350 a week.
