Visit Chan Chan. The monumental zone still covers around six square kilometers from what has been estimated to be once twenty square kilometer. The Outstanding Universal Value of Chan Chan resides in the extensive, hierarchically planned remains of this huge city, including remnants of the industrial, agricultural and water management systems that sustained it. Chan Chan was once built by the Chimu culture (remnants from the Moche) between 900 AD until the Inca’s arrived around 1470 AD. The most impressive structures on this site include, Palacio Nik-An with different nature, bird and fish motives on its walls.
