there are very colourful and closely decorated houses in Lima. Often seen colours were yellow, turquoise, blue and pink/ red. 

 here the architecture is new and  interesting

 At every Spanish city, the central plaza is called Plaza de Armas.
 Here Plaza de Armas in Lima.
At a Plaza de Armas there are the most important buildings, government, mayor, police. The buildings are beautifully decorated and in the center of the plaza there are always beautifully-placed  flowers, fountains, trees.

 Plaza de Armas from a different prospective, being overlooked by mountain. Lima is constantly growing- houses go up to the middle of the mountain, many refugee- looking. Because of the humidity, a fog is cast during the winter months May- October.

Plaza de Armas.

 A beautiful 500 year-old church. 
Hundreds of doves rest and eat here.

 A hobby for all ages- feeding the birds.

 Impressive entrance to the church. Below- Susana's younger son and me. Behind  us are my dad, Susana and her older son.

 After the church and Plaza de Armas we decided to go to a typical Limian coffee shop.
