Museums
Pre Columbian Art Museum
Address: Casa Cabrera, Plazoleta Nazarenas, Cuzco (Cusco), Perú. Open: 9am to 11pm.
This is the first Peruvian museum that presents visitors with the aesthetic aspects of exhibited objects which belong to ancient Peruvian cultures. The stunning work made by ancient men who since memorial times established a path for Peruvian artists to follow and feel motivated by. The museum intents to rescue the unique work of those anonymous artists whose creations are still a reason for pride and admiration. |
