Alameda Valdelirios

The Alameda Valdelirios extends along the river Alameda with stone pathways leading to an independence monument constructed in white limestone.

The alameda's design was commissioned by the Marqués de Valdelirios in 1806, and its construction was completed in 1862 as part of colonial urban development.

The entrance archway, constructed by Don Rufino Macedo, commemorates the Battle of Ayacucho and represents a significant period in Peru's independence movement.

The monument underwent substantial restoration work in 2001 to preserve its architectural elements and improve visitor accessibility throughout the public space.

The alameda features an original colonial-era stone archway that combines indigenous Peruvian construction techniques with Spanish architectural influences.
