Cathedral

This cathedral was built in the late 19th century. In contrast the Plaza de Armas (Parque Principal) wasn’t inaugurated until 1916, which gives an idea of how new the city is by Peruvian standards. It's usually open for morning mass, but its rather plain interior doesn't really match the fine facade.
