In Lima’s historic Plaza de Armas, where Francisco Pizarro founded the city in 1535, the Municipal Palace (Palacio Municipal de Lima) stands as a testament to the city’s rich history. Rebuilt and restored multiple times, this neo-colonial structure now serves as the administrative center of Lima. Inside, visitors can explore an elaborate French Renaissance interior, a striking contrast to its more subdued exterior. The palace offers a glimpse into the city’s past and present, blending historical significance with modern governance.
