Exploring the center of Lima

Today we took a tour around the city center. Colorful colonial buildings with intricate balconies lined the streets.

Saint Francis Cathedral - we took a tour of the catacombs beneath this ginormous church. Over twenty-five thousand bodies had been buried in the underground labyrinth. 

Estacion de Bomberos

Ramón Castilla - one of the most famous and beloved presidents of Peru. He ended slavery and had electricity installed throughout the city.
