Really cool place. Was 15 soles for entry and the museum too, it is also compulsory to enter with a guide and a tip is required for them also as they are volunteers. However, the guide was great and definitely worth it to be able to understand the site. It is easily accessible with a combi for 2 soles or a taxi for 12.

Impressive place massive proportions. It's a must while in this region. Tour takes about 50 minutes. Tipping the guide and entrance fee is only 10 soles. Did not know you must buy the ticket at the on site museum prior.

The artwork, the history. What a place to have been and seen with my own eyes. I love hearing about Peru's indigenous history. 🥰

If you only see one archeological site in the area, see this one. The colours are incredible, and unlike anything I’ve seen in Peru. The guide was very knowledgeable. We loved our visit.

If you are in the north of Peru, I recommend making the effort to view this site along with Chan Chan!
You can catch a collectivo from Trujillo easily for only a few Sol.
Also tourism students provide a volunteer tour guide service. Our guide here was the best we have had in Peru. Amazing!

Very interesting ruins. Excavations are ongoing with very well preserved depictions of gods and humans as well as ancient artefacts that are currently situated in the museum close by (same ticket). Definitely recommend visiting - wear comfortable clothing and walking shoes as well as hat + sunblock if visiting as most of it is outdoors.

Stunning find from 1989. An immense complex.

A nice piece of history from the Moche civilization from 100 to 700 AD. This temple still has the original colours on the wall paintings. Visiting the museum + temple takes about 2 hours. Would recommend to take a guide with you. (there are also a few english speaking guides)

Amazing place. What they did with mud bricks was spectacular. Very windy with lots of sand.

The full site under excavation but what you could see, is breath taking. I loved our guide who was very knowledgeable and friendly. The walk up to the ruins is a bit steep but less than 5 minutes. Once you are in the tour group, the ruins are covered and the walk is easy and protected from the elements. It's a must do when you are in this area. There is ample parking, clean restrooms, small shop that sell refreshments and memorabilia, and a lovely little museum on site. I will definitely return to see the progress of the excavation and bring the rest of my family.

Great place. Felt like we had the whole archeological site to ourselves + the tour guide. Never seen antique walls and ceremics in such prestine condition given the age.

Amazing to see remnants of a culture that pre dates the Incas.

Impecable maintenance of the grounds with ample parking and clean bathrooms. The guide was knowledgeable and very welcoming. The ruins are still being excavated. However, the majority of what is shown is incredible. Lovely visit. It does involve some walking up hill to get to the ruins (less than 5 minutes). Once You get to the ruins, most of the tour is shaded and well organized. Highly recommended. Also, the small museum on site is a definite must do. Brings the whole thing together.

Really interesting place and amazing to see how well preserved considering how old it is. We had a guided tour with Junior who was fantastic and shared lots of information with real enthusiasm

Great experience recommend this temple

Incredible! Just amazing to look at. The volunteer guide was very informative too well worth it.

One of the many fantastic archaeological sites of the region, one of the most interesting ones. It's absolutely worth going and the local guides are excellent. The ancient city itself is very interesting and over the centuries the main monument has been built over previous layers, so at some point is possible to witness that. Amazing experience.

A must visit place in Trujillo. The murals are impressive.
