Municipalidad Metropolitana de Lima Must-Sees

Lima's historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage site, features the Basilica of San Francisco with its extensive catacombs and the Convent of Santo Domingo, known for its Sevillian tiles. The Plaza de Armas is anchored by the Government Palace and the Archbishop's Palace. Beyond the center, the archaeological site of Pachacámac preserves pre-Inca temples in the Lurín Valley. The bohemian district of Barranco offers the iconic Bridge of Sighs and contemporary culture at the Museo Mario Testino, while the Park of the Wall showcases remnants of the city's colonial fortifications.
