About Amazonas


Amazonas is a region in northern Peru that borders Ecuador. It's known for its dense cloud forests, rugged Andes mountain terrain and ancient ruins. Its most notable archaeological site is Kuélap, a pre-Incan settlement comprising hundreds of buildings ringed by a massive perimeter wall. To the south is the regional capital, Chachapoyas, a small highland city of red-tiled roofs.
