Pacasmayo’s Pier

The pier at Pacasmayo.

The Pacasmayo pier was built in the 1860’s, making it over 150 years old.   It has a railway on it, for a train.  It was pretty scary walking on it.  The railroad tracks were rusted out.  The planks had gaps between them, and many would wobble under your feet.   I do not know if it is true, but I was told that the original pier was longer, until a storm destroyed a portion of it.   This was the first time I had been on it, in all my trips.

Matty on the edge.
