Moyobamba

Moyobamba is the capital of the San Martín region in northern Peru. It's known for thousands of orchid species, many viewable at the San Francisco Botanical Garden, which also has fruit trees and butterflies. A path winds up Morro de Calzada, a solitary bluff rising above the forest just west of the city. The thermal waters at Baños Termales de San Mateo south of the city are thought to have therapeutic qualities.
