A king once knelt before revolution on these stone streets, but Lima’s secrets run deeper than the shadows on its grand facades.

This self-guided audio tour winds through the city’s heart, letting you unlock hidden stories and scandals overlooked by most visitors. Stand before towering palaces and sacred cathedrals as the true tales of power, rebellion, and ambition are revealed in your ear.

Who vanished under mysterious circumstances at the very doors of the Government Palace? What secret echoes within the crypts of the Metropolitan Cathedral after midnight strikes? And why did a simple balcony spark political chaos that changed Lima forever?

Stride through sunlit plazas and past imposing columns as forgotten betrayals and covert alliances come to life. Each step draws you closer to the city’s pulse where drama stirs just beneath polished stone.

Dare to uncover Lima's real history. Press play and let its secrets pull you in.
