 Croatian-Peruvians are not a widely known ethnic group in Peru, nonetheless their contributions are noted in everyday life.Most popular among these is the sport of bocce, "bochas" in English and Spanish, a simple ball game known all over Europe and very popular in Croatia.Gatherings in the affluent "Regatas Lima" country club in the Limenian district of Chorrillos became common after "bocha" alleys were constructed there, and soon all over the city.
