METROPOLITAIN DISTRICTS - LIMA

Miraflores is one of Lima’s wealthiest districts. It is home to corporate office buildings and luxury high-rise apartments, miles of cliffside park space for jogging and biking, and some of the city’s best fine dining. The district does not have a traditional food market. Residents buy food in modern and high-end supermarkets instead. Photo by Jake Izenberg.
