Pachacamac Ruins

We will visit the Archaeological Sanctuary of Pachacamac, just 30 kms. south of Lima. It was built in adobe with view to the sea and the Lurin River valley. It was a pilgrimage site for many cultures that inhabited ancient Peru. Upon arrival of the Incas, the complex was adapted to become an administrative center, respecting and adapting the local constructions. You can find there the Temple of the Sun, the Acllahuasi, the Palace of Taurichumbi, the Pilgrimage Plaza, among others. We will also visit the Site Museum to get a better insight and appreciate the salvaged remnants of the area. We will continue with lunch at Los Ficus Farm located in the Lurin River valley (34 kms from Lima), where we will enjoy a home-made lunch and an exhibition of Peruvian Horses. On our way back, we will be able to stop at Dedalo, a sophisticated handicraft gallery in Barranco that offers masterpieces by Peruvian designers.

The Hacienda "Los Ficus", is located in Lurin valley, just 15 minutes south of Lima. The trip to arrive includes traveling across rural roads, cultivated fields and small towns. It's a private hacienda house, that opens its doors to the visitors on very special and exclusive occasions.
