Visit the Main Square of Lima, better known as “Plaza Mayor”, walk to Casa Aliaga, America’s best-preserved colonial mansion which has been occupied by the same family since 1535. The land was given to Captain de Aliaga by Pizarro himself, here he built the ancestral house that has been home to approximately seventeen generations.
