Lima Cathedral.
I have arrived in Lima, Peru. The coastal area is cold.
The temperature only rises to 20 degrees.
The other day, I slept in a room with the windows closed, and bacteria seemed to spread throughout the room, and I woke up with a headache.
I felt like it would get worse if I stayed in the room, so I opened the window to ventilate the room and then went out. I recovered about 80% in about 3 hours. Whew. It's strange to recover outside. I think dust from my bag might have spread, so I think I'll wash it when I get home.
Anyway, I'm taking a break sitting in the Lima Cathedral to recover my strength.
By the way, there are absolutely no people walking and smoking! It's too comfortable.
This cathedral is of high quality, even for South America. It's no wonder, as it was the starting point of the colony.
I've had similar thoughts before, but it seems that Christianity originated from the abuse of Christ, destabilizing Christ's aura and having his abilities stolen by those around him.
At the time of the abuse, the people around him were ignorant, and the opportunity for enlightenment came when they were affected by the unstable aura of Christ. It was then that they finally realized that they had done something terrible. Therefore, while Christians have a sinful origin, I think that those who gained enlightenment by stealing the aura may have some degree of enlightenment, even if it's stolen enlightenment.
Stories about stealing the abilities of others often appear in the Japanese chronicle, and I wonder if this is the same all over the world.
The initial pattern is that people are ignorant and abuse others to steal their abilities, and the other pattern is that people fight against it. In the Japanese chronicle, even though the abusers are the villains, they try to overcome them with their wit, but in Christianity, it seems that the abusers won. Therefore, Christians have the sin of killing Christ and stealing his aura and enlightenment in order to gain enlightenment.
Note: This is my own interpretation.
Speaking of sin, the "original sin" that Christians talk about is probably something more cosmic, but I don't quite understand it. When I looked it up, it said that Adam and Eve committed the original sin, and that Christ is the savior. Wow. It seems that such an interpretation is possible, but it seems quite self-serving. They are abusing and killing Christ. It's the interpretation of the side that stole it. It doesn't seem to be from the perspective of Christ.
(If I said something like this in a strict Christian country, I might be exiled. I'm glad I'm Japanese.)

Archbishop's Palace Lima Museum
Religious sculptures are also well-stocked.
Museum and Catacombs (No photography inside).
Everywhere, there are IHS (Jesuit) symbols.
Huaca Pucllana
Amano Pre-Columbian Textile Museum.
The Amano Pre-Columbian Textile Museum is a small museum, but it has a collection of high-quality exhibits.
The Miraflores district of Lima, where this museum is located, is a small and beautiful town. Not only is it visually appealing, but the driving manners are also relatively good.
In other parts of Peru, it is common for cars to prioritize themselves, and if a pedestrian is in front of a car, the driver will honk the horn repeatedly and for a long time, stick their head out of the window, and loudly berate the pedestrian with phrases like, "What are you doing? Get out of the way, you idiot." However, in the Miraflores district, cars tend to stop slowly for pedestrians. It seems that pedestrians have priority here.
It's amazing how different things can be between different regions within the same country. Even in Lima, the old city has driving manners that are not as good, but they are better than in rural areas.
By the way, Chile also prioritizes pedestrians, and so does Ecuador. For some reason, only Peru is like this.
Even though the driving manners in the Miraflores district are said to be good, on average, they are completely inferior to Chile and Ecuador. It's more like a higher percentage of cars have good driving manners. Of course, there are also cars with bad driving manners.
Within Peru, the driving manners here are top-class.
There is also an exhibition featuring artifacts from the Chavin ruins that I visited recently.

Museum of Art of Lima
I came to the MALI Museum, and it's also very well-equipped.
Among the cities I've seen in South America, this might be the city with the most comprehensive collection of artworks.
In other South American cities, there are often many artworks of poor quality, but here, they have a decent quality collection.

Huaca Huallamarca
Museo de la Nacion
I visited a photography exhibition at the National Museum.
The theme was the history of the past 20 years.
It's only been 20 years, but the content is quite disturbing. There are a lot of images related to guerilla warfare and terrorism.
It seems to be a self-governing group with homemade guns. It appears to be a form of self-defense against terrorist organizations.
It seems to be an ultra-leftist group called Shining Path.
It was said to be so extremely cruel that it was called the Pol Pot faction of Peru.
It is interesting to read a text that seems to have been written 20 years ago.
There is a mention of President Fujimori, and this year, Keiko Fujimori is running for president. Her name, "Keiko," is seen everywhere in town, which suggests she is popular.

This is also interesting. The dark side of President Fujimori.

Museum of Natural History
Parque de las Leyendas (Zoo)
On the last day in Lima, I went to the zoo.
This zoo has real ruins inside, so you can enjoy them together.
This is a rare place.
I discovered a rare small animal that I haven't seen anywhere else.
This is also a rare small animal.

Museo de los Descalzos
The north side of Lima station is a slum, but there is a museum there, so I came to visit.
When I tried to take a bus from the city center, a staff member told me that it was dangerous and that a direct bus would be better.
In the end, I couldn't quite understand the direct bus, so I took a bus that went nearby, and one of the passengers on that bus said, "It's dangerous, let me take you," and guided me to the museum.
What a kind person.
And, it seems that this place is that dangerous.
The painting here, depicting the persecution of Christians in Nagasaki, is impressive. It shows the method of execution by burning, or being surrounded by fire.
In the upper right corner of the painting, there are names of people who were persecuted in Okinawa.
Personally, I think this is a must-see painting in Lima.
Photography is not allowed for the original, but a portion of it is used in the brochure, so I have included it here.
It makes you feel the history.
In Europe, you might need to be careful about anti-Japanese sentiment, but in South America, it might be possible to display things openly because it's far away.
