Trujillo had this shape in 1858. An oval wall protected the city of pirate attack. In past posts you can check how the wall was.

What will they do?

In the convent

In the monastery Santa Clara, a lot of women dedicate their life to God. They don't go out from this convent for any reason. I always wonder if God would prefer they love him by helping the people outside the monastery. Life is outside right?

En el monasterio Santa Clara, muchas mujeres dedican su vida a Dios. Ellas no salen del convento por ninguna razón. Siempre me pregunto si Dios preferiría que lo amen a través de la ayuda a la gente fuera del monasterio. La vida está afuera cierto?

In the corner of my life

In the corner of my life I saw my girl, my friends and my enemies, some of them came with me, the others walked around the corner of the forgotten street.

En la esquina de mi vida vi a mi chica, mis amigos y mis enemigos, algunos vinieron conmigo, los otros caminaron alrededor de la esquina de la calle del olvido.

Self Portrait in House of Emancipation

It´s me

I just found out about self portrait 'cause I saw it in several daily city blogs. This is an image with a paint of the XVIII century. This place is scenary of several cultural and artistic activities. I hope some day I can expose my pics here for the people of my City.

The House of Emancipation

This big hall belongs to one of the most historic houses of Trujillo: the House of Emancipation. In this house began the planning for peruvian freedom from the spanish domain. Now this big room is used for expositions and it is located in downtown Trujillo, near the main square. It has a colony style with the classic arabic ceiling.

Corpus Christi

The Cathedral of Trujillo

The cathedral of Trujillo, the night before celebration of Corpus Christi. Most people of this city are catholic and this kind of holiday is celebrated with devotion. In this case, the floor will be decorated with colorful images made of flowers. The cathedral maintains its colony style, a spanish heritage.
