You will start the first day with a City Tour where you will visit the most emblematic points of the city, such as the Main Square , the Archaeological Museum of Ancash, which houses one of the largest monolith collections in the Americas; the Pastorita Huaracina Boulevard, a cultural gathering space; and the Sanctuary of the Lord of Solitude, a temple that guards the patron saint of the city. You will also walk along the historic José Olaya Street, the only road that preserved its original architecture after the 1970 earthquake, then you will head towards the Rataquenua Viewpoint, which boasts a privileged location to enjoy a spectacular view of the city and the snow-capped mountains.
