Museo de Arqueología
Museo de Arqueología-November 2024
Nov 14, 2024

  This well-curated museum features a rundown of Peruvian history from 12,000 BC to the present day, with an emphasis on Moche, Chimú and Inca civilizations as well as the lesser-known Cupisnique and Salinar cultures. It’s also worth popping in for the house itself: a restored 17th-century mansion known as La Casa Risco, which features striking cedar pillars and gorgeous painted courtyard walls.

  There are sometimes traditional dance performances in the courtyard, which are well worth checking out; ask staff for details.
