Discover Chiclayo
Chiclayo is a central base for discovering the Moche, Lambayeque and Sicán cultures. Its museums and archaeological sites preserve tombs, metalwork and stories that transformed understanding of ancient northern Peru.
Chiclayo welcomes visitors year-round. The austral summer is warmest; other months are generally mild and suitable for archaeological excursions.
The coastal climate is dry and usually warm. Use sunscreen, carry water and pack a light layer for windy days or cooler evenings.
Two or three days cover the essential museums and sites. Combine Chiclayo with Trujillo for a four- or five-day archaeological route. Chiclayo airport receives domestic flights and the city has intercity bus connections. Sites are spread out, making an organised excursion particularly convenient.
Visit the Royal Tombs of Sipán Museum, Huaca Rajada, Túcume and the National Sicán Museum. In the city, Mercado Modelo and its traditional herb section offer another perspective on local culture.
