A pre-Inca site situated at 30km from Lima.

My suggestion

Despite what you may be told, you don't have to go on a guided tour or use a taxi. Public transport buses stop near to the site's entrance. It goes without saying that the journey by public transport takes longer!

My suggestion

Being based in Lima, I often need to get away from the city's oppressive air. The site at Pachacamac is a perfect getaway, being only 40km south of the city.
