Pizarro Street is the main pedestrian street of Trujillo’s historic center, running northeast from the Plaza de Armas. Lined with colorful colonial mansions, including the House of Emancipation and Palacio Iturregui, it features wrought-iron window grilles and wooden balconies everywhere, and there are cafés, dessert shops and restaurants along the way. At the end of the street lie the small Plazuela El Recreo and an old water fountain. In the evenings and on weekends, locals come out for a stroll, making it a good place to experience everyday city life.
