Top Attractions in Huancayo
💡 Look for the small side chapel dedicated to the Señor de los Temblores; locals believe it protects the city from earthquakes. Mass is held at 7am and 6pm daily, and you’re welcome to sit in.
💡 Go at sunrise to avoid the strong sun and get the best light for photos. There’s a small shop at the top selling bottled water and choclo con queso.
💡 Ask the guard to open the back room—there’s a collection of carved stone heads and a rare Inca quipu that’s not always on display.
💡 Go on a Sunday afternoon—there’s often a free folk dance troupe practicing in the amphitheatre. The park is spotless and has good benches for a picnic.
💡 Come on a Saturday morning when the Andean mercados are busiest—you’ll find the best selection of local cheeses and artisanal bread. Don't bring valuables; keep your bag zipped and close. Free to enter, but a bag of lucuma fruit costs about 2 soles.
