The Peruvian Embassy in the People's Republic of China organized with great success the screening of the film "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts" at a gala event, with the aim of promoting our country's image as one of the most important tourist destinations in the Americas, as well as the perfect setting for different film productions.


The event was hosted by the Megabox cinema chain at Beijing's Taikoo Li Mall —one of the most prestigious and popular centers in the Chinese capital.

It was attended by representatives of numerous Chinese companies linked to the tourism industry, government agencies and offices also related to this sector and the local media.

During his welcoming speech, Peruvian Ambassador to China, Marco Balarezo, highlighted the indisputable beauty of our country's natural and historic landscapes.



The envoy emphasized that the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu —recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage icon— is the testimony to the major achievements by the Inca civilization, whose beauty and magic continue to captivate those who have the privilege of visiting it.

Lastly, he took the opportunity to invite the Chinese public to embark on a trip to Peru, sharing its archaeological and natural treasures, as well as unveiling its historic secrets.

Film in Peru

'Film in Peru' is a strategy by the Peruvian Commission for Promotion of Export and Tourism (PromPeru) to promote the country as a film destination, raising awareness of the country's identity and image.

Peru offers an amazing geography and a vast culture that make the country a destination with countless locations and diverse settings where all kinds of stories can be told. Peru is history, nature, culture, and adventure.

In addition, the country is a melting pot of ethnicities and living cultures with cultural manifestations of vibrant colors and a rich folklore that fuses music, dances, and traditional celebrations that have transcended time. 

Also, its diverse gastronomy stands out. The result of the fusion of climates, cultures, colors, and flavors of the Coastline, the Andes mountains, and the Amazon make the experience of filming in Peru unforgettable.

We invite you to discover the Peruvian locations here.
