Currency and credit cards

The currency used in Peru is the Nuevo Sol . Currently (April 2013), the exchange rate may vary from 2 .70 to 2 .50 soles to 1 .00 US dollar . In Peru, US dollars are easiest to exchange, although Euros are also accepted in banks and exchange houses . Any other currency can be difficult to change outside of Lima . It is more convenient to have lower soles denominations bills because retailers may have limited change . Please note that old or torn dollar bills will not be accepted by taxi drivers, vendors, banks, exchange houses, etc .

The Nuevo Sol (S/ .) is divided into 100 cents . The currency includes 10, 20 and 50 cent coins and also 1, 2 and 5 sol coins . There are bills in the denomination of 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 soles .

At Universidad ESAN, we have an ATM that accepts all cards, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, etc . It is located in front of “Edificio T” . However, before entering a restaurant check which credit cards are accepted .

CLIMATE

Climate seasons in the Southern hemisphere (Peru) Summer: December 22nd . to March 21st . - 20 to 29°CAutumn: March 22nd . to June 21st - 22 to 17°CWinter: June 22nd . to September 22nd . -17 to 13°CSpring: September 23rd . to December 21st .-13 to 19°C

Peru is located in the Equatorial area of South America, but its climate does not correspond to its geographical location for two fundamental factors: the Andean Mountain Range and the cold marine current of Humboldt, also called Peruvian current .

The Peruvian current and the geographical relief of Peru condition the climate characteristics in three big areas (from west to east), the Coast, the Andean Region or Sierra, and the Amazon area or Jungle, each with its particular climate characteristics .

The coast presents, in general, a tempered climate, warm in the north (Piura), a little colder towards the

center and souther regions (Lima and Arequipa) . Rains are almost nonexistent in Lima, with the exception of winter time when the so called garúa or chachani -a very delicate type of rain- appears . Humidity is high, reaching up to 99% during winter . This increases the sense of coldness .

ELECTRICITY

The electric system of Peru uses 220 volts and 60 cycles . Some four and five star hotels provide 110 volt sockets . It is therefore important to verify the voltage of hair dryer, razors, sound systems, laptop battery chargers, video camera recording, etc ., before plugging them in . Should it be necessary, 110/220 transformers can be easily purchased .

SHOPPING

As a modern city, Lima features shopping centers in almost all its residential areas . They include large department stores like Ripley and Saga Fallabella, and boutiques of many kinds . Prices vary according to the brand and quality of the product . These shopping centers include cinemas, food courts, bookstores and drugstores .
