Chancay = Chancay ?
  • Tip Rating:
  • Ok, thereīs this little village, but there also did exist a era of Chancay, a culture named Chancay. Here you got a typical "Chancay" mean a find out of this epoch.

    The Chancay culture is placed in the time between 900 and 1400 AD, called "regional states period". At the same time the maybe more famous Chimu kingdom existed near Trujillo. The best collection of Chancay artefacts is at the Amano Museum in Lima.

    a funny castle
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you stay for longer time in Lima and you would like to leave the metropolitan life for some hours go e.g to Chancay to have nice dinner and have fun in the little castle.

    This castle was constructed between 1924 and 1942 by Doņa Consuelo Amat y León, sheīs a descendant of the Vice-king Amat. (this shall be a very famous person in Peru) The castle is also known as "Castillo Madre Perla". No itīs function is hotel and museo. It offers 10 salons, 100 rooms,12 terraces and has got 4 little fortified towers.

    hmm, I really donīt know at all, it was all quite funny here and finally I got my name from here I already used for different email adresses as as well here in VT.

    Here you can find everywhere old ceramic things, dishes, cups, bottles, music instruments and small statues, real or fake. Indeed, it does not matter so much when buying those things, are they real or not, because the price is only some soles.
