Tour description
Our Tour starts visiting Real Felipe Fortress (Royal Phillip in spanish), the biggest of the southamerican shore of the Pacific Ocean, built to protect to the Callao Port against the attack of pirates and corsaries who wanted to steal the gold and silver shipped to Spain.
Then, we walk in some streets to watch the architecture of very old companies which operated there, considering that Callao is still being, the main Port of Perú.
We visit a nice and high building of the XX century that now is an art gallery and studio of local painters and photographers that show the real life of a port.
Going to Grau Plaza, we have the chance to take a boat for having a panoramic view of the docks of Callao, the main port of Perú. On the route we see Cannon of the People and Abtao Submarine.
Taking a bus, we go to La Punta, neighborhood of peruvians descendents of italians who came in the XIX century. Good place to eat sea food.
