Batán Grande (Sicán Archaeological Complex)

Batán Grande: Ancient Sicán Pyramids and Gold Burial Secrets

Skip the crowds at other sites and head to this dusty, sprawling complex to see the massive adobe pyramids where archaeologists unearthed legendary gold masks. The site covers a huge area, so hire a local guide to find the Huaca del Oro and the main tombs. Go early to escape the mid-day heat of the Lambayeque desert. Spend three hours here, but don't expect plush amenities—bring water, high SPF, and decent boots.
