Pachacamac is considered one of the most important pre-Hispanic ceremonial centers on the Central Coast of Peru. For at least two thousand years it was occupied by Andean cultures like the Lima, Wari, Ichma and Inca. It is comprised of monumental pyramids (The Temple of the Son, the Painted Temple and the Temple of the Mamaconas, among others) and occupies an area of approximately 492 hectares.
