Took a taxi from the hostel for a 20 minute trip to the town of Lambayeque to visit the "Museo Tumbas Reales De Sipan" which is a world class museum with displays from nearby ruins. Peru is one of the richest countries for archeological ruins of the Incas as well as many previous civilizations. Unfortunately the building and temples were constructed out of "Adobe", mud brick so they have not weathered time as well as stone buildings would have.
We weren't permitted to film in the museum but the displays of jewelery and art works found buried in the tombs were beautiful and very intricate. They also had a reconstruction of the tomb of the last ruler of Sipan which was a bit grim to see that the rulers were buiried along with several wives, the head of the military and a few Llamas for good measure!
