Alameda de los Descalzos
Jr. Atahualpa 181, Rímac 15093
Colonial promenade with carriage lanes and marble zodiac statues, once Lima's stage for courtship and flirtation.
This guide to the Alameda de los Descalzos in Lima opens with the tapada limeña, the veiled women of colonial Lima, gliding down a promenade laid out in 1611 by Viceroy Juan de Mendoza y Luna. It follows the courtship rituals played out along its carriage lanes and footpath, and the scandalous romance between Viceroy Manuel Amat y Juniet and the performer known as la Perricholi.
