Correo Central de Lima
Location:
Pasaje Piura, next to the Palacio de Gobierno
Central Lima, Lima, Peru
Historical Building
Not just a post office, this very big and ornate edifice behind the Palace of the Governor in the historical center is worth visiting simply for appreciating its architecture. It also serves as a historical museum, complete with displays of notable stamps. They detail the importance of the Peruvian postal service as a hub of communications technology from its founding in the 19th century, where it provided the first telegraph and later radio services to the country. It is divided by a walkway under elegant metal arches. Be prepared for merchants who will try very aggressively to get you to purchase postcards. Admission is free.
