The city of Lima:Conocida like that of kings (population 6 415 000) it was founded by Francisco Pizarro in 1535 January 6 the epiphany (the kings' banquet). It was designed to be a purely Spanish city in a conquered territory but it has turned out to be a place-special one something monotonous and repaired - together after 450 years of earthquakes. The touch of light of the capital is the exceptional collection of devices incan in the armored camera of the basement of that of possessed private Peru of Museum of Gold or of the Peruvian museum of the gold (up it is the museum from the arms to the incredible collection of weapons that you/they extend of the lances to a he/she arms of Gatling). As extensive as it is the collection of the gold sobering to carry out that these are simply Spanish of those crumb-melted or it plundered the best pieces. Also visit to Museum of the Nation (national it Museum-travels available in English) one of the biggest museums in Suramérica. Divided in the exposed objects that you/they look at the last present and the future (imagined) of Peru includes a model of the tombs of gold-loaded dug recently in Sipan and the reproductions of some of the archaeological best places in Peru. Lima has 20 more museums including the museum of the inquisition (library of the university of the instruments of the torture and carved roof) the national museum of the archaeology and of the anthropology (the textile of the ceramic and figures of stone of the whole Peru beyond cultures) and the Museum Rafael Larco Herrera (55 000 ceramic works including the erotic ceramic pre-of Christopher Columbus). Churches to see to include the cathedral in the square of Weapons (it sustains the remains of Pizarro) San Francisco's (the beautiful roofs and the hand-carved catacombs that they contain 70 000 they skeleton-take the directed trip) Baroque church and of the Merced (I siege of the first mass in Lima he/she has a cloister and a charming chancel). Other views include Palacio Tagle (the wonderful example of the colonial architecture now serves as the foreign ministry) House of Aliaga it Toasts (built 1535 inside and still occupied by the same family!) and House of Oquendo (where San general Martin remained after proclaiming the independence of Peru). In the square of Weapons (I center of the government from 1535) it is the palace Government's Palacio (presidential palace where changing the protector happens daily in 12:45 P.M.) of the Archbishops (notice the adorned balconies) and the source of central brass. The type of cloth of cotton of the neighborhood (Chinatown) deserves a visit in the dinnertime. If the time allowed they include to Bridge of Stone the 530-ft/162-m that the stone bridge built 200 years ago. A visit to the districto of Rimac should include to the Convent of the Barefoot (colonial astonishing convent with the paintings and the other art) ones. It fences the city of Pachacamac that has some of the best ruins incan (give a term at least of a half-day for this trip) is. The temple of the virgins the temple of the sun and the preserved excellent irrigation systems are among their attractions. Be safe to include the suburbs of the beach of Miraflores (a young place, far from the hubbub and of the fog with fume of the central districto) and of Ravine (nightlife and the center to carry out arts in Peru) in their itinerary. Plan only two nights in Lima it is not really a touch of light in a beautiful country as Peru
