Casa Hacienda Punchauca

The Casa Hacienda Punchauca stands at kilometer 25 of the Lima-Canta Highway, featuring traditional Peruvian architectural elements and colonial-era construction methods.

Built over a Huaca during the viceregal period, this estate witnessed the notable 1821 conference between independence leader José de San Martín and Viceroy José de la Serna.

The property represents the agricultural development of Lima province, incorporating both Spanish colonial and indigenous Peruvian design elements in its construction.

Visitors can reach the hacienda by taking the Lima-Canta Highway to kilometer 25, where guided tours explain the building's historical importance.

The structure remains one of the few surviving examples of viceregal architecture in Carabayllo that was constructed directly over an ancient Huaca site.
