About Huaca Pucllana temple
Huaca – In ancient Peru, a “huaca” was the term granted to a river, a tree or a mountain attributed with magical powers if the spot was inhabited by a deity or an ancestor; along the coast the term was given to stepped pyramid-shaped temples. This complex was a ceremonial and administrative centre run by the Lima culture (400 AD), which controlled the Lima Valley. The Huaca Pucllana features an on-site museum and areas of research, conservation and restoration, and cultural promotion. The museum is working to integrate the site into the community starting with schoolchildren, in a bid to create awareness of the importance of Peru's archaeological and natural heritage. It has been successfully integrated into the urban modernity of the City as an archaeological site that can be visited every day.
