In this sense, through the social network Facebook and through the page known as "Lima una historia" (Lima a history), we were able to learn about some impressive photographs where some portraits of one of the most crowded streets can be appreciated until today.
We are talking about Jiron de la Union, a place that has great relevance to the center of Lima and that was initially called "Cuadra que va de la Cruz de San Diego" (Block that goes from the Cruz de San Diego).
In the shared images, you can appreciate the block 8 of Jiron de la Union, where some businesses that were opened between 1950 and 1980 can be seen.
Finally, as you may remember, Jiron de la Union is a mythical place that connects two great historical centers such as Plazuela San Martin and Plaza Mayor de Lima.
