Trujillo, mucho gusto
I would like to write about my country, Peru. Here you will have the opportunity to experience pleasure, history, traditions, delicious (I mean exquisit) cuisine, and of course, explore and enjoy.
But I won't tell you about well known places like Lima or Cusco (amazing indeed), I want you to read about my current city: Trujillo. Trujillo is one of the most important cities (in terms of GDP) after Lima and Arequipa. It is located in the northern coast of the country. You can get here by plane or bus from Lima (45 mins flight or 9 hrs by bus, bus ticket is between $35-40 per person and flight ticket $60-70 round trip both ).
Temples, pyramidal contructions and mud cities from "Moche" civilization (early than Inca Empire) are very interesting and some of the remarcable destinations. The city also has beautiful colonial architecture, nice beaches for surfers (Malabrigo, Las Delicias), great food (Cabrito, Pato, Shambar, Ceviche), an you may also find bars, and all kinds of restaurants. There are two big shopping centers with variety of stores and brands.
The weather is warm most part of the year, summer time is from January to April. If you come on January you must attend to the "Festival de la Marinera", it's an international festival and contest of our peruvian national dance: Marinera. It is held the third week of January and ends with a traditional white party (Fiesta del Perol). This city is know by the name of Ciudad de la Eterna Primavera (city of the eternal spring) because of the good weather. You may also visit this city on September for the Spring Festival.

It is really great to know all of those information about your country. I am so facinated with the Nasca lines, the mysterious art drawings in the Peruvian desert. There are so much to see in Peru and that is really interesting.

Hi Lisandro, mmm well the word quiet could have different meanings,Trujillo is the capital of La Libertad Region and it's the third populated city in my country, but life here is definitely more quiet than Lima. The beach of Huanchaco is 15 mins far, most places are close fron each other, almost no traffic jam. Like other cities in Latin America you must be careful when going out, but I can tell my life here has been nice. I have already 2 years living here. About the "eternal or endlesd spring" name I guess some other cities have it aswell yes. Hope you can visit my country soon.

Hello Cymegan! That's a wonderful city. One question that I have: Is a quiet city?
When you said the city is more know it like the " city of eternal spring", I remembered that Medellin, Colombia has the same name.
I hope to travel there. I'd like know Peru and landscapes.
