Oro

I took a very special trip to Peru with my Dad a few years ago and I am so glad we took the time together to explore it...it's an amazing country!  We were enchanted by so many unexpectedly beautiful sights, foods and experiences.  My favorite cultural memory is visiting the "Museo del Oro" (Museum of Gold) in Lima.  It went far beyond gold, including many fascinating textiles that spelled out their trading history, exquisite jewelry that represented ancient symbolic warfare, and more.   Enjoy the treasures!

I hope you enjoyed our cultural tour for today.  :)
