City Tour And Witch Market

Once we pick you up from your hotel in the city of Chiclayo, our exciting tour begins with a visit to the Paseo de las Musas. This is an ideal spot for a delightful family outing, where you can enjoy a pleasant stroll.

This urban park features numerous squares adorned with stunning gardens and flowers, alongside sculptures of nine muses from Greek mythology crafted by the artist Miguel Ángel Díaz Dávila.

Our Chiclayo tour continues to the main park. Notably, the city lacks a Plaza de Armas as it wasn't a battleground. From this vantage point, you’ll have panoramic views of commercial centers, the historic cinema, and the impressive Cathedral.

The Cathedral of Chiclayo, or Santa Maria Cathedral, began its construction in 1869, concluding in 1939 due to financial constraints. Designed by Gustave Eiffel, it showcases a neoclassical architectural style.

The city of Chiclayo was established in 1720 by the Spanish as a resting place for merchants during the colonial period.

Next, we will visit the Municipal Palace, a Republican-era monument that hosts impressive exhibitions by local photographers in its elegant rooms.

Chiclayo is a hub of pre-Inca cultures like the Moche and is where the tomb of the Lord of Sipán, or Huaca Rajada, was discovered.

We will conclude our tour at the Mercado Modelo, also known as the Witch Market of Chiclayo. Here, you can find a wide array of items, including products related to witchcraft, as shamanism is a traditional practice in the mountains and jungles of Peru, used to heal ailments or lovesickness.

After this unforgettable tour, we will return you to your hotel.
