Cinco esquinas (Spanish for Five corners) is an area of the neighbourhood of Barrios Altos in Lima, Peru.
It was declared Cultural heritage of Peru as part of the historic centre of Lima.
In the 19th century, it was a place where Lima's bohemians gathered.
In the middle of the 20th century, it became a refuge for criminals, such as the infamous Luis D'unian Dulanto [es].
[1] Mario Vargas Llosa was inspired by the neighbourhood for his novel of the same name.
