Description

Experience the exquisite collection of precious metals in Peru with this informative Gold of Peru Museum Tour. In addition, you will encounter a remarkable array of over twenty thousand weaponry pieces spanning various eras and origins.

Gold of Peru Museum Tour

Your adventure begins with a convenient pickup at your hotel at the scheduled hour. Once gathered, we will embark on a captivating exploration of Peru’s rich artistic heritage. Our journey will commence at the Plaza Mayor, where you will take in views of the Municipal Palace, Government Palace, and the Cathedral of Lima, all while uncovering the historical narratives that shaped this vibrant city.

Afterward, we will visit a traditional eatery on Jiron Ancash Street for a tasting of the quintessential Peruvian drink: pisco sour. Following this delightful refreshment, we will make our way to the highlight of our tour: the Museum of Gold of Peru and Weapons of the World. This museum showcases over eight thousand artifacts, reflecting the customs and beliefs of ancient Peruvian civilizations.

As you explore the museum, you will encounter textiles, tools from the bygone era, mummies, and funerary bundles. Moreover, the skillful craftsmanship of the goldsmiths from the pre-Inca cultures of northern Peru is sure to leave you captivated. From masks to bracelets and necklaces, the intricate details carved from gold and precious stones will astound you.

The significance of its name, Weapons of the World, stems from its exceptional collection of twenty thousand weapons representing diverse periods and origins. Weapon enthusiasts will find themselves engrossed by this vast assortment, which also includes military uniforms, armor, and mounts.

In conclusion, our tour will wrap up approximately 3.5 hours later.
