Larco Museum

The Larco Museum is a privately owned collection of pre-colonial artefacts. Most of the collection originates from Moche but the museum is guiding us through the history of all the pre colonial regions of today’s Peruvian territories.

Loved it!

The same day I also visited the Museo Nacional de Arqueología, Antropología e Historia del Perú which didn’t really leave me with a deep impression, but it was free. I think it was worth my time.
