About
The pyramid was built between around 200 and 700 AD from millions of handmade adobe bricks stacked like books on a shelf, a technique that helped it resist earthquakes. It served as a ceremonial and administrative centre, and guided tours explain its excavations, burials and the plants and animals of ancient Lima.
Best time to go: Take the guided tour in the late afternoon, then return for dinner at the restaurant overlooking the lit ruins.
