"It hasn't rained for 600 years, nearly 9 million people." Why is Lima so magical?
The charm of Lima lies in its geographical location and climate. Lima is located in the eastern edge of the subtropical high in the South Pacific, which belongs to the tropical desert climate, but it is also affected by the Peruvian cold current.

The wind direction in Lima is very low, basically parallel to the sea level, so it is difficult for water vapor to reach the clouds. When Peru's cold current passed, the air on the sea surface met with a cold current and cooled into an inversion layer. Water vapor can't be transported upward and condenses into clouds, so it can't rain all year round.

Although Lima belongs to a tropical desert climate with comprehensive high temperature and drought, it is foggy all the year round, but the climate is not dry. When it is foggy, you will feel a little wet when you stand outside for a while. This fog will not fall to the ground, but will only float in the air.

There is also a river in Lima called "Kyle River". Although it didn't rain, the locals could use the water from the Marco River. Locals also call this river the river of life. In Lima, where it hasn't rained for many years, this river really plays an important role. Others say that the name Lima also comes from the Mark River. Therefore, the local people didn't pay much attention to the fact that it didn't rain.

Because of Lima's special climate, the air is very good and it is super livable. Although it hasn't rained for 600 years, it has raised nearly 9 million people. The average temperature here is about 19 degrees Celsius, with four seasons like spring and sunny all year round.

Lima also attaches great importance to greening and has beautiful scenery. It is also known as the garden city, and it is a good place to travel. Tourism in Lima is also a major part of income. Famous scenic spots include Ames Square, Lalko Museum, San Francisco Monastery, Hu Ya Capulein Ruins, etc.
