- Story Text: King Juan Carlos of Spain has enjoyed a bull fight
featuring Spain's top matador, Julian "El Juli" Lopez,
following a two-day summit in Lima, Peru. The King's official
visit to the country begins on Monday.
King Juan Carlos of Spain watched one of his country's
top bullfighters perform in Peru on Sunday (November 25),
following the two-day Ibero-American Summit.
Spain's Julian "El Juli" Lopez, the country's famed
matador, received standing ovations from King Juan Carlos and
spectators as he entered the ring during Peru's annual Christ
of Miracles fair. Lopez triumphed over his bull by slicing
off one of its ears.
King Juan Carlos was accompanied by Peru's famed author,
Mario Vargas Llosa while Colombia's President Andres Pastrana
watched the spectacle in the first row from the adjacent box.
The King will begin an official visit to Peru on Monday
and will return to Spain on Wednesday.
