Trujillo

The city of Trujillo is blessed with a wealth of attractions including colonial architecture, an elegant plaza de armas, numerous museums, great cuisine and some fascinating Moche archaeological sites in the surrounding area. Trujillo doesn’t have the best reputation in terms of safety and criminal activities, but most tourists won’t see many signs of that, especially within the historic city center. Trujillo is the third largest city in Peru and certainly a prime destination for anyone heading north of Lima.
