Who can complete exploring Lima without going to the Museo de la Inquisición or the Museum of the Inquisition, an important destination that strengthens Lima tourism. The museum is one of Peru’s main museums that is on par with other museums in the world in the services it provides. The museum that used to be a massive mansion was the headquarters during the Spanish Inquisition and prisoners used to be tortured in the basement of the building from 1570 to 1820. Visitors of the museum can still visit the underground dungeons and torture chambers, complete with the display of instruments that were used to torture the non-Christians.

One of the more interesting things to do in Lima is to visit the museum that used to be the temporary home of Congress. The dungeons may be frightening but the visitors would also appreciate the beautiful building and its mahogany ceiling. The designs of the building’s columns feature a classical Greek style which will be delightful to visitors who have an eye for such details.
