Great stop in Lima - If you’re interested in history, this is a must see in Lima. We visited here last June 2023. This property is gorgeous and well-maintained. The staff is very friendly. The exhibits are easy to follow and have a variety of artifacts

Better than expected - Museo Larco as the largest collection of “Huacos” in the world. Inca artifacts, etc In addition they have beautiful grounds and a fine restaurant. I would go again. It is located in Puebla Libre a district of Lima, Peru.

Largo Pre-Colombian Museum - Superb museum for understanding the underpinnings of the Incan and Andes cultures prior to the Spanish invasion. Remarkable collection of finely preserved artifacts told in an easy to follow story. Great museum shop. The Erotic collection was powerful and artistic, placing sexuality in a historical context with cultural belief systems of the indigenous people.

Surprised - Well worth a visit. I never thought I would enjoy looking at old Peruvian pottery. However, even after 2 hours there I wasn't ready to leave. It has an amazing collection .
