Located on the left bank of the Lima River, these lands were gifted by nature, with fertile soils, a mild climate and an abundant biodiversity that allowed human occupation over more than 2,000 years.

The mythical Lugar da Passagem (Passage square) embodies its favorable geostrategic position ensuring, the crossing of the river by many pilgrims and others who were going to sell on the other side of the bank. The monolithic next to the pier with inscriptions of the prices of long ago and the six pirogues of the XII and IX century found in this place, are some evidences of the enormous commercial flow that passed through there until the middle of the 20th century.
