ITINERARY:
BARRANCO
+ CHORRILLOS
We begin our tour in Barranco, Lima’s most bohemian suburb
and the prefered location to enjoy nightlife in Lima. We will see
Barranco’s Central Park, its Municipal Library, the traditional
Bridge of Sighs, the colonial homes and its famous boulevard. Next,
we will head over to Chorrillos, once the most exclusive summer
resort in Lima. Nowadays, Chorrillos is the only suburb in Lima
that boasts an ecological reserve called “Pantanos de Villa”
which we will see on our way to Pachacamac.
PACHACAMAC
We will drive down the South Pacific Coast Highway to Pachacamac,
the most important ceremonial center in the Peruvian coast during
pre-Inca and Inca times. Pilgrims went to this large complex to
pay homage to the creator god Pachacamac. Throughout the centuries
Pachacamac was occupied by many different Andean civilizations such
as the Lima’s, the Wari’s, the Ichma’s and finally
by the Inca Empire. However, the Pachacamac Oracle always remained
a religious center. We will see several pyramidal temples and enclosures
from different time periods such as the Adobitos Temple (I C. A.D.),
the Old Temple (I C. A.D.), the Painted Temple (VIII C. A.D.), a
pyramid with a ramp (XIII C. A.D) and the Temple of the Sun (XV
C. A.D.). Besides the ruins we will also visit an on-site museum
displaying pottery, textiles, shell and stone ornaments, as well
as the wooden Pachacamac idol found during excavations in 1938.
At
the end of this tour, you will have a choice to either shop at the
Indian Market, the Larcomar Mall or return to your hotel.
