Among the first businesses were a nightclub called Ibiza, the Sur Market, and a supermarket called Los Tres Chanchitos. Over the course of the decade, a movie theater and an E. Wong supermarket came to the city, along with many small shops and restaurants. Today’s Asia has stores offering nearly all the products and services available in Lima.

The Camino Real is now home to many more nightclubs, including Juanito, Cocobongo, and Tsunami. The open-air shopping mall, Sur Plaza Boulevard, has more clubs, including trendy spots such as Café del Mar and Nikita, complemented by the lower-priced La Huaka and Joia.
