The first sightseeing is the “Regional Museum of Ica”, where incredible ancient artefacts that have been found at different areas of the region can be appreciated. All these ancient treasures date back to 2,000 years. This area is also important because many of the highly developed cultures (Paracas, Nazca, Ica Chincha, Wari) reigned within the area.
