Parque de la Muralla

Why go

Look at the surviving foundations to picture the wall that enclosed colonial Lima. Built in the late seventeenth century and demolished as the city expanded in the nineteenth, it is easier to understand here than through street names alone. The river setting also gives the stop a different outlook from Plaza Mayor.

What to look for

• Remains of the old city wall are visible in the park.
• The site faces the Rímac and Cerro San Cristóbal.

Useful to know

• Find the surviving wall sections within Parque de la Muralla.
• Combine this short stop with San Francisco and the surrounding historic streets.
