1. Peru
Peru is a lively destination for culture, music, food, and art. It’s no wonder that it attracts enthusiastic tourists from all over the world. When looking for street art cities, Peru is at the top of the list for many travelers.
Often called the romantic heart of the city, The Bridge of Sighs is an electric tourist attraction. It reflects Lima’s rich culture and features artists that push the boundaries of what street art could achieve. The murals are connective, touching, colorful, and vibrant.
For any street art lover, this destination alone makes Peru worth visiting.
The Bridge of Sighs (and Barranco as a whole) is not only an incredible place for observing street art, it’s also one of the most photogenic locations you’ll ever visit. Take it from one of our AtlasGuru contributors.
The Bridge of Sighs and the Bajada de Baños (which is a lively pedestrian avenue that descends to the beach) are the great tourist attractions of Lima, and the best ‘spots’ to take pictures, you can also find several murals of ‘street art’ or urban art.

Speaking of ‘street art,’ it must be said that Barranco has the highest concentration of urban art in the capital, with colorful works of Peruvian and foreign artists.
While you’re there, don’t forget to try the local cuisine.
There, a great recommendation of the traditional Peruvian food, the anticuchos is characterized by the use of beef heart and is considered a traditional dish.
