WI_pe096.jpg

Another common name for the main square is Plaza de Armas. The oriels are characteristic for the historic centre of Lima. Most of them date back to the late 17th and 18th Century, and they were an important criterion for the recognition of the area as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988.
