Lima’s Cathedral

The cathedral stands on one side of the Main Square, in the center of Lima with a mix of baroque, gothic and pure colonial style. An interesting fact is that it has been founded on an Inca temple dedicated to the powerful puma. The inside, remarkable for the woodworking and the paintings around the naves, is worth seeing.  There is a tale in which Francisco Pizarro remains conquistador of High Peru and winner of the Inca Empire; this would be hidden in the chapel to the right of the nave.
