In-Depth Information
Indigenous cultures throughout Peru graphically depicted sexual acts in their art. While
our present-day culture might look upon these as pieces of pornography, they are in
fact representations of rituals associated with fertility and agriculture. This gallery
showcases dozens of erotic ceramics, all in an incredible state of conservation.
5 CAFÉ DEL MUSEO
Last but not least, I like to recommend that visitors unwind on the restaurant's terrace.
Not only will you sample some extraordinary local cuisine, but you can admire the mu-
seum's breathtaking grounds, which won first prize for Best Gardens in Peru in 2009.
Thanks to Lima's mild climate, the colorful orchids and blooming bougainvilleas
thrive all year.
