Today I visited Chan Chan, many years later, it was an interesting visit. :)
Chan Chan was the capital of the Chimu kingdom, it's the largest Pre-Columbian city in South America, this archaeological site located to 5 Km west of Trujillo. The walls themselves were constructed of adobe brick, and were then covered with a smooth surface into which intricate designs were carved. You can only visit one of ten walled citadels which composed this magic city.

Chan Chan fue la capital del reino Chimú, es la ciudad precolombina más grande de Latinoamérica, este sitio arqueológico está a 5Km al oeste de la ciudad de Trujillo. Las paredes, en su totalidad, están construidas de adobe que luego fuera recubierto con ligeras capas de barro formando diversas tramas y diseños. Sólo puedes visitar uno de las diez ciudadelas que componen esta mágica ciudad.
Rains and earthquakes have destroyed the walls for many years; however, we can still see their designs in murals in the Tshudi Palace, the only one of the ten citadels that survived.

The "Huaca de la Luna" is an adobe brick temple built by the Moche civilization on the north coast of Peru, in Moche (a district of Trujillo). You can visit just for $4.
The huaca was decorated in registers of murals which were painted in black, bright red, sky blue, white, and yellow. The sun and weather has since faded these murals away, but other murals used in earlier phases of construction can still be seen inside the Huaca.
