    Getting TO/AROUND: There are lots of local buses going to different parts of Lima, the conductors shout the destination and crab you onto the bus. They are very cheap but not very comfortable, but definitely an experience you must try.

    Getting TO/AROUND: There are 'millions' of taxis in Lima! I didn't take any, but I couldn't help seeing and hearing them. Every time they saw a tourist they blew their horn, every time I tried to cross the street several taxis blocked my way! The photo was taken from Plaza San Martin and the hotel in the back was closed because the workers hadn't got their pay. There were placades against President Toledo hanging on it.
