Lima - HALF DAY CITY TOUR (COLONIAL AND MODERN LIMA WITH VISIT TO LARCO MUSEUM) (B)
We will learn about the two characters of Lima: the modern one, reflected in the districts of Miraflores and San Isidro; and the historic one, encapsulated in its historic center declared a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO. Along the tour through different districts of the city, we will see how the old and the modern coexist in buildings such as the Museum of Italian Art, Palace of Justice, Museum of Lima, Plaza San Martín, among others. We will discover the center of Lima on foot, having the Plaza de Armas as the focal point: a beautiful colonial square worthy of photography, surrounded by emblematic buildings such as the Government Palace, the Cathedral and the Archbishop's Palace. We will have the opportunity to enter one of the most iconic ecclesiastical spaces in Lima, the Convent of Santo Domingo, also declared Cultural Heritage of Humanity and where the relics of three Peruvian saints are found: Santa Rosa de Lima, San Martín de Porres and San Juan Macías. The tour would not be complete without a visit to the Rafael Larco Herrera Museum, one of the most important in the country, exhibiting a valuable collection of almost 45,000 pieces of pre-Hispanic cultures, especially the Mochicas. This museum stands out for being one of the first in the world to have visitable storerooms and to provide virtual access to its entire collection. We will marvel at the quality of its pieces of jewelry, textiles and its enigmatic "erotic room", dedicated to ceramics alluding to fertility.  Overnight at the hotel.

This charming half-day tour of Cusco offers us history, living culture and art. We will be able to appreciate how the Andean and Spanish cultures, as well as the past and the present, coexist in harmony in the Imperial City. We will arrive at the center to walk the halls of the San Pedro market, the oldest in the city. Designed in 1925 by Gustave Eiffel, today it brings together hundreds of merchants selling local products. We will also visit the Koricancha temple, which during the Inca empire was a center of worship of the Sun and on which the Santo Domingo convent was later built as part of the evangelization process. Its baroque style façade built on solid Inca walls perfectly summarizes the syncretism of cultures in the city of Cusco. To appreciate the greatness of the Incas, we will ascend to the monumental fortress of Sacsayhuamán, one of the best examples of their military architecture, and we will tour the archaeological center of Kenko, a ceremonial place where the Sun, the Moon and the stars were worshiped. We could not take a tour of the city without visiting the cathedral, its most important temple. It was built on the palace of the Inca Huiracoha. Its interior houses a wonderful collection of colonial art composed of goldsmith pieces and representative canvases of the Cusco School of Art.

Its enormous concentric terraces and the variety of microclimates they create allowed for the cultivation of a wide variety of crops. We will also visit the community of Misminay, where we will enjoy a valuable cultural exchange and get to know the traditional Andean way of life up close. Its residents will welcome us with their characteristic warmth, accompanied by music and typical dances, and then invite us to take part in their various daily activities before enjoying a delicious lunch. On our way back to the valley, we will encounter Ollantaytambo, an ancient military, religious, and agricultural center strategically located on a mountain. We will explore its imposing fortress that showcases the might of the Inca civilization and offers an unrivaled view of the town, the only one that still maintains the original Inca urban design to this day. Overnight at ANDEAN WINGS VALLEY HOTEL OR SIMILAR.
