Castillo de Lamas, Medieval-style castle in Lamas, Peru
The Castillo de Lamas rises with its turrets and stone walls against the background of the San Martin region's green hills and tropical landscape.
Italian architect Nicola Felice built this castle in 2005 following an earthquake that affected many buildings in the Lamas community.
The interior walls display murals by local artist Geens Archentti, combining European architectural elements with Peruvian artistic expressions.
Located 22 kilometers from Tarapoto, visitors can explore five levels of the castle, including dining areas and observation points, starting from 9 AM.
This stone structure stands as the only Italian-style medieval castle in the Peruvian Amazon, incorporating a natural rock formation into its foundation.
