What to do? Trujillo?
To begin with, it is essential to take a walk through the center of the city, starting with the Plaza de Armas, the cathedral and the Cathedral museum located within. You cannot miss the opportunity to see the Huaca del Sol y de la Luna which is 8 km south of the city and the Chan Chan citadel, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. For those who want to enjoy the beach, the Huanchaco resort waits for you with its famous "totora horses", traditional rafts, and perfect waves for surf lovers.
When to go Trujillo?
During the spring-summer season temperatures are high, so many tourists prefer these months to enjoy the coastal area. However, the city and its surroundings remain attractive even if temperatures drop a little more in the middle of the year. If you want to go looking for festivities, you can't miss the National Competition De la Marinera in January, one of the biggest in Peruvian folklore.
