Two pre-Hispanic pyramids<\/strong> built from adobe, a grove of olive trees<\/strong> planted by a Dominican friar, and even a country house<\/strong> that once belonged to a countess \u2014 these are some of the places you\u2019ll discover with us on this free tour<\/em> through the streets of Miraflores and San Isidro<\/strong>, two districts of modern Lima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your urban adventure begins at the entrance of the Huaca Pucllana Site Museum<\/strong> (Miraflores). Every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday<\/strong> at 09:00 hours, our guide will be waiting<\/strong> to show you the truncated, stepped pyramid built by the Lima culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a journey back in time<\/strong>, set in an area surrounded by modern life. Along the way, you\u2019ll pass by the colonial house of the Count of San Isidro<\/strong> (today a well-known restaurant) and wander through El Olivar Park<\/strong>, a green oasis that first came to life in 1539<\/strong>, just four years after Lima\u2019s Spanish foundation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tour ends with one last glimpse of the city\u2019s ancient past. Our final stop is Huaca Huallamarca, also known as \u201cPan de Az\u00facar\u201d<\/strong> \u2014 another adobe pyramid where ancient civilisations<\/strong> once worshipped their gods. Step by step, you\u2019ll uncover this fascinating heritage on our free tour<\/em> of Miraflores and San Isidro<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
