There are several other historically significant buildings around the Plaza de Armas. One of the most popular attractions in Lima is San Francisco Monastery, particularly for its haunting catacombs full of thousands of bones piled together. Also worth a look is the Government Palace, not just for its current political interest, but also for the dark history of Fransicso Pizarro, a prime conquistador of Peru.
