Piura is one of the hottest areas in Peru, along with Tumbes and where you can find the famous Sechura desert. Most travelers are enthusiastic about their culture; especially the vicus culture (Sechura), whose pottery attracted the attention of archaeologists and collectors.

The main attractions are its resorts and beaches such as Máncora, Colán, Los Órganos, Vichayito, Cabo Blanco and Lobitos. However, the ancient main square stands out, not only for its beauty, but also it´s where the monument to freedom is, “La Pola”, the oldest in the region. Other highlights are the bridge of the city of Piura and La Paloma de la Paz, built in 1982 by the Peruvian sculptor Víctor Delfín.
