In Paracas, the celebrations for the 68 years of the district’s creation began. The agenda includes the First Gastronomic Fair called “Paracas, un mar de sabores”.
The Mayor, Rosario Ramírez Gamboa, informed that 15K visitors are expected to visit the town, counting national and foreign, during this week.
According to Ramírez, in “Paracas, un mar de sabores” typical dishes of the area will be offered, altogether with wines and pisco. “Ceviche, seafood, anticuchos, tamales and desserts will be sold in this fair, as well as wines and pisco that are admired nationally and internationally”, said the Mayor.
In the anniversary week, not only the natural attractions of Paracas will be promoted, but also the variety and richness of its gastronomy.
