This is our gateway to the treasures of northern Peru. Named after the Spanish city where conquistador Francisco Pizarro was born, Trujillo's stately mansions and decorated balconies date back as far as 1534. This is the Moche Valley, home to the extraordinary adobe citadels built a thousand years earlier by the Chimus and Mochicas. Most remarkable of all is Chan-Chan. Capital of the Kingdom of the Great Chimu and the largest city in South America to be built of mud, it once covered an area of over 12 square miles. Our guides will pick out the highlights which include murals that tell of the people's ancient rituals and stepped pyramids that rise over 90ft high.
Salaverry Attractions
Trujillo is the most spotless city in Peru. Sightsee around the graceful colonial churches and monasteries, or head for the nearby ruins of the Chimu city of Chan Chan, a fascinating pre-Incan development.
