Lonely Planet review

High on a hill east of the old town, the newly resurrected green space of Parque Itchimbia boasts magnificent views of the city. It's the perfect spot to spread out a picnic lunch, soak up the sun and take in the unobstructed 360-degree views. The park's centerpiece is the Centro Cultural Itchimbia, a large glass and iron building modeled after the city's original Mercado Santa Clara. It hosts regular art exhibits and cultural events. The park has cycling paths and walking paths too.

Buses signed 'Pintado' go here from the Centro Histórico, or you can walk up (east) Elizalde, from where signed stairways lead to the park.
