Descent into the underground catacombs at San Francisco Monastery

Lima · Peru

The experience

About this experience

Beneath San Francisco Monastery, narrow stone corridors lead to burial chambers and bone vaults. Carefully arranged bones quietly show how the colonial era saw death and the sacred. It is a dim, cool and thought-provoking visit.

The stairs are narrow and the space is low and cool, so layers help. Makes a calm break after a day of walking. Do not skip the colonial church spaces above ground.
