360° View - Historic Center - Saints' Tombs

No Lines, No Waiting

Description

The convent that holds Lima's most sacred secrets

Walk beneath the same arches the saints of the Americas walked almost 500 years ago. A place where faith, art, and history are felt in every corner — one most tourists never discover.

Face to face with sacred history

The remains of Santa Rosa de Lima and San Martín de Porres, the first saints of the Americas, rest just steps away from you.

Architecture that stops time

16th-century cloisters covered in tiles brought from Seville, set around courtyards that feel frozen in another era.

The photo everyone wants

Climb the bell tower and take in a 360° panoramic view of the Historic Center, a World Heritage Site.

A library like no other

More than 25,000 antique volumes, manuscripts, and rare incunabula that survived centuries of Lima's history.

A spiritual, historical, and visual experience you won't find anywhere else in Lima. Reserve now and secure your spot.

Frequently asked questions


Your ticket includes access to all colonial cloisters, the Chapter Hall with Dominican Order portraits, the Library, baroque-altar chapels, the crypts of Santa Rosa de Lima and San Martín de Porres, and the famous bell tower with its spectacular 360° panoramic view.

It's included! Access to the bell tower — where you get one of Lima's most spectacular and Instagrammable views over the Historic Center — is part of the standard tour with your entry ticket. No extra charge.

Personal photography is permitted in most areas. Tripods, flash, and commercial photography require prior authorization. In areas of active worship, discretion and respect are requested.

The guided circuit takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes. If you want to explore the cloisters and the tower more leisurely, allow 75 to 90 minutes. Don't rush — every corner has a story worth hearing.

As an active religious site, respectful dress is required: avoid very short shorts, sleeveless tops, or low-cut clothing. The convent can provide scarves or wraps if needed.

Get off at the Historic Center Turibus stop and walk approximately 5 minutes to Jr. Camaná 170. The convent is minutes from Plaza Mayor, making it easy to combine with the Cathedral and the Government Palace.
