The guide
Where exactly
It's the main square in the center of town, in front of the cathedral. Full of people most of the day; lots of tourists.
Cruisiest spot: Any of the benches.
When to go
It's a public plaza, open all the time. Best times: 8 pm to midnight. Dates open: It's a public plaza, open all the time.
Etiquette
Find a park bench and strike up a conversation.
Safety
It gets quite cold here at night, be sure to wear a warm coat. I find my hooded sweatshirt works well. Always thoroughly check out the person, as poverty is rampant in Peru and the temptation of financial gain, whether legitimate or not, is great.
