Description
In this tour of Chan Chan and Huanchaco we will immerse ourselves in ancient Peruvian culture and discover one of the most important pre-Hispanic cities in America.
At the appointed time, we will meet at Jiron Orbegoso Street in Trujillo and head to the pre-Columbian city of Chan Chan, a pre-Hispanic adobe settlement belonging to the Chimu kingdom.
For an hour, we will visit the Nik Ann palace, full of monochromatic reliefs, and the Chan Chan Site Museum, whose pieces will provide us with valuable information about the pre-Columbian history of Peru.
After visiting Chan Chan, we will go to the Huanchaco Beach, a beach known worldwide for its fierce waves. Its name comes from the word guaukocha, which means "lagoon of golden fish".
