Wine and Dine in ArequipasteemCreated with Sketch.

in travel •  7 years ago 

 Lima is known as Peru’s culinary center but it is hard to beat the cuisine in Arequipa. From the small, traditional picanterias with their communal seating to the higher-end restaurants, the food is to die for! They even made the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest Rocoto Relleno, a filled, fiery hot red pepper dish.You may not be brave enough to try cuy (guinea pig), but there are enough traditional dishes to keep you busy for a few days, not to mention the amazing bakeries on every block. In between eating, you can check out the Plaza de Armas. One of the most beautiful Plazas in Peru, its massive cathedral takes up one entire length of the square. Arequipa is also a center for fine alpaca textiles and you will be tempted at every corner to indulge in one of the beautiful garments on display. And don’t miss the Santa Catalina Monastery, a city within a city that dates back several hundred years.
