a bronze fountain dating from 1560. Located in the Plaza is the Cathedral,

fine woodwork, mosaic covered walls bearing the coats of arms of Lima and
Pizarro. Then you'll visit the Monastery of San Francisco, this is famous
for the Sevillian tile work and paneled ceiling in the cloisters, the
catacombs under the church and part of the monastery are well worth seeing,

After visiting Lima city we will go to the Larco Herrera Museum , 18th
century colonial-style museum houses the largest and most impressive ceramic
collection in the world, with about 55,000 pre-Colombian clay pots on
display. The collection concentrates on the refined ceramics of the Moche
Dynasty, the people who lived along the northern coast of Peru between 200
and 700 AD. The Moche culture is recognized as accomplishing one of the
greatest imaginative languages of ancient Peru through the use of creative
pottery, providing clues to all aspects of their civilization without the
use of the written word. One can learn about their religion, agriculture,
transport, dance and music through their ceramic designs and shapes. The
Moche are also renowned for their fascinating erotic pottery and the famous
collection is on display in the separate 'Erotic Hall', depicting sexual
practices of several Peruvian cultures in a lifelike, explicit and often
humorous way. At the end of the services transfer to your hotel. (L)
