Tumbes

The city of Tumbes break the schemes of the coastal cities of Peru. Tropical climate, a river that you can sail all year and so close to the shoreline that you can feel the sea breeze in the Plaza de Armas.
It is so gentle and safe that the only danger that lurks in the visitors are called "matacojudos" huge fruits hanging from the trees of Plaza Mayor.
A must see is the Cathedral of San Nicolas Tolentino housed inside a wooden altar worked with applications and their tax Baroque windows with scenes from the Holy Trinity and the saints of the most important Tumbesian pantheon.
On one side of the cathedral is located in the Old Town today Tumbes-library-a colonial mansion built in Guayaquil and pole topped with a typical tower lookout. But there is not the thing. Other sites to visit are the Plazuela Bolognesi and pedestrian shopping area of the Paseo del Maestro, Los Libertadores, El Abogado, El Triunfo, La Concordia and El Peruano Ecuatoriana Triunfino where they are located restaurants, nightclubs and shopping malls.
The architecture of the typical Tumbesian is also unique. Built with cane of Guayaquil, hualtaco algarrobo or has in its interior with spacious rooms and can have up to three floors with high ceilings to reduce heat. La Casona Feijoo Grau located between the streets and the Andes, is one of the most representative.
