This tour included a visit to the Lady of Cao huaca which is the only found matriarch of power in Moche history. Amazing story, incredible history. Proves that you cannot turn over a stone in this region without discovering something incredible.

Un lugar muy interesante, lamentablemente la sala donde se expone la dama de cao estaba cerrada al publico por mantenimiento.
El chofer super amable, buen servicio.
