My husband and I had a 10-day tour of Peru in early December. We visited Lima, Cusco, Urubamba and Puno where we saw and did a lot of different things. We started in Lima, the capital, and a thriving city of contrast. From multi-story businesses to humble, one-story homes, it was all visible as our bus passed through the city and the differences in income from district to district became quite obvious. First stop was at Plaza Mayor which houses several large buildings. This one is the Government Palace where the President resides. There was a big police presence in the area to curb any protests but protesting is allowed in other parts of the city.
