Lima - Cultural Park Parque de la Cultura (Parque de la Exposicion)

Parque de la Cultura was formerly known as Parque de la Exposicion, which it is still referred to as by the locals. If you are taking a taxi to the park be sure to mention Parque de al Exposicion because most drivers don't seem to know the name Parque de la Cultura and will drive you all over Lima rather than admit they don't know what you are talking about.

Built in the 1800s, the park is a beautiful green space with an amphitheatre and Japanese Garden. It is also home to the Museo de Arte. The park is just a short cab ride from the downtown area and a nice place to go to escape the busy streets of Central Lima.
