Outside Lima

Here are some gay or gay-friendly places outside Lima that I know of personally or have been recommended to me. As everywhere in Peru discos don't really get started until nearly midnight.
In nearly every town or city in Peru the Plaza de Armas after 10 p.m. is cruisy. Local guys are usually friendly and can provide information on gay places. As always, take care, be cautious, and be safe. Please send me any information you can if you find anywhere new or visit any of the places listed below.

Gay Places in Cusco

Little by little, the gay side of Cusco is being revealed as I receive more reports from travellers.
Regretably I have to put in a warning here; Cusco is less friendly than Lima and attacks do happen. Definitely the worst thing you can do is walk the back streets of Cusco after dark after having had a drink or three. Always take a taxi between your hotel and the main square or other destination (and back), take a taxi from a legitimate taxi company, after entering the taxi lock all the doors from inside and close the windows, don't let anyone else into the taxi, insist the taxi goes right to the door of your hotel. Note these numbers of licensed taxi companies - 247080, 222222 and 222000. I mean this most sincerely, folks. Be warned.
