Visitors and residents of Lima will be able to join the guided tours "Limeño Soy" (I am from Lima) and "Palacio Municipal Abre Sus Puertas" (Municipal Palace Opens its Doors), by filling in a form that will be published on Fridays and Saturdays, respectively, at 11 a.m. on the Visita Lima (Visit Lima) official Facebook account.

Additionally, the second edition of the photography contest "Los Reyes del Carnaval" (The Kings of the Carnival) will be held from February 7 to 25 inspired by the Lima carnival and its most representative characters.

Meanwhile, the photo exhibition "Gong Hei Fa Cai: Festivity in Chinatown" will be available from February 15 to 28 on Santa Rosa Street.

A new edition of the workshop "Aprendiendo con el artesano" (Learning from the Craftsman) will be held on Saturday, February 19, in which participants will paint customs drawings by Pancho Fierro. 

The above-mentioned virtual workshop will be led by Milagros Ramos Romani —the finalist of the first "Artesanias para Lima" (Crafts for Lima) contest.
