Overview

The capital of Peru, Lima, is located on the central coast of Peru, along the Pacific Ocean.

It hardly rains, but if it does, most of the precipitation in the city, known as gara, falls between June and September. Especially in winter, the city is known as “Lima la Gris” because of its cloudy and overcast weather.
