An ancient clay city in Peru just won an award for opening its doors to everyone

Chan Chan, the vast earthen city of the Chimú kingdom near Trujillo, has won Peru's 2026 Inclusion and Disability award for its 'Chan Chan para Todos' programme. Ramps, accessible toilets, sign-language videos, Braille relief replicas and a sensory wall have welcomed 1,107 visitors — 335 people with disabilities and 772 older people — through 48 workshops and 27 accessible guided tours of the museum and the Nik An complex.
