ABOUT MIRAFLORES

The II Internacional Symposium on the Andean Bear will be held at the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia at the Miraflores District in the city of Lima.  Five kilometers south of the historic center, the district of Miraflores is the most touristic and cosmopolitan area of the city of Lima. There you will find a variety of hotels, modern commercial areas, and public parks of great beauty. Starting as a fishing village, became a modest balneary for the capital city. However, due to its strategic placement became one of the residential and aristocratic areas of the 20 century Lima and nowadays is one of the most important commercial axis of the modern Lima.

At the beginning of the XX century, Miraflores was a very quite place far from the busy Lima downtown. It was chosen as one of the residential areas from many upper and middle class families and starting its accelerated progress.  Many new neighborhoods were developed and the Leguia Avenue  (now Arequipa Avenue) was build. In 1911 was declared a city, counting with 1000 habitants.

Among the many touristic attractions Miraflores offer the archeological complex of Huaca Pecllana (also known as “Juliana); the Reducto Park, remembering the Mirafolres Battle; the Municipal Palace, with its art shows; the Parroquial Church, reconstructed  alter the Pacific War; the Alfredo Salazar Park; LarcoMar Commercial center; The Love Park, and the Waikiki and Miraflores beaches.

Miraflores also offers and important array of artistic and cultural activities with a large number of  theaters,  art galleries, restaurants, cafes and pubs. Its newly refurbished parks congregate every Sunday  thousands of Lima citizens atracted by the art and music shows.
