Ubicada a 6.5 kms de la ciudad de Arequipa, pasando por la bella paisajista, es un Palacio construido por don García de Carvajal, fundador de Arequipa, en la última década del s. XVI. Según cuentan, la mandó construir para su hijo. Admirablemente restaurada por la familia García Calderón, tiene una hermosa vista de la campiña y una bella iglesia.
Construida en sillar al borde de un acantilado, es una de las más importantes y tradicionales del departamento. El ingreso principal está compuesto por un zaguán de techo abovedado, seguido por un amplio patio principal sobre el que se abren las ventanas y puertas de las habitaciones.

16th century colonial estate. Built on the border of the Socabaya River, this residence has belonged to several proprietors through history. Originally the property of the founder of Arequipa, it belonged in the 16th century to the congregation of the Jesuits who built many enclosures, terraces and chapels. In 1785 it was acquired by Don Juan Crisóstomo de Goyoneche y Aguerreverre, who converted it into the residence it is today. The building has a main entrance with a dramatic vestibule with vaulted ceiling. There is also a Mirador with panoramic views and beautiful, intimate chapel. Admission 9 am 5 pm.
