We start our visit with a panoramic view of the temple of the Sun (you cannot enter , because it is not restored) and the city of Los Moches, with its houses and production carvings. Continue to Huaca de la Luna Our first stop will be in Huaca de la Luna accompanied by our expert guide in archaeology. These temples were the religious and administrative centre of the Moche culture (100 AD - 800 AD). During our visit we will tour Huaca de la Luna which is the only one that has been restored, here we will visit its ceremonial square, main altar, decorated courtyards, many of these sectors are decorated with beautiful reliefs painted with representations of their gods and rites.

Chan Chan was the capital city of the Chimu empire (1000 AD – 1470 AD) and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1986. The city is composed of 9 large ceremonial and administrative complexes which also served as mausoleums of the Chimú rulers. In our visit we will tour the Nik An complex which has been restored and will allow us to get a sense of how power was organised from this city. We will visit its ceremonial square, fish and poultry corridor, administrative sector, which are decorated profusely with marine motifs, as well as the ceremonial well and royal mausoleum. The visit to this large complex will take us imaginarily back to the time of Chimu splendour.

Huanchaco

Huanchaco is a fishing village that despite modernity resists disappearing and continues to fish in millennia-old boats made of totora. Here we will have the opportunity to see your boats and nets on the seashore and hopefully we can see the fishermen in their daily activities: sewing nets, fishing or offering a ride on your boat to anyone who requests it.
