Lima was founded in 1532 by the conquistador Francisco Pizarro.

Museums If you are like the majority of visitors that come to Peru to admire the archaelogical remains of the pre-inca and Inca civilizations,the visit of these three more important museums is a must.They are:The National Museum,National Museum of Archaelogy,Antropology and History and the Larco Herrera Museum.
