Museums of Lima

The best way to understand the history of Peru is to visit the Museums of Lima. In them the greatest cultural heritage of the country is preserved.  

Some of the best collections of pre-Hispanic times are in the National Museum of Anthropology and Archeology, the Larco Museum and the Amano Museum; the Lima Art Museum (MALI) summarizes all the artistic manifestations of the country; and the MAC and the MATE (which exhibits the work of Peruvian photographer Mario Testino) are excellent options for modern art. Simply not to be missed.
