Getting Around
Metropolitano is a bus rapid system going along 'Av. Paseo de la República' a.k.a 'Via Expresa'. It can easily take you to the historic centre in downtown Lima, to Lima north where the famous Megaplaza is or go south to Barranco (culture and nightlife) or even Chorrillos. Cheaper and many times faster than taking a taxi. It can be crowded on peak hours.
