Cajamarca is a town of contrasts, including ethnic groups, because unlike the other areas of the Peruvian highlands, there is a mixture of ethnicities.
The climate is temperate, dry and sunny during the day and cold at night. The average annual temperature: 21 ° C average maximum and average minimum: 6 ° C
You can go walk the historic center of the city where there are buildings, churches, squares and streets of the Spanish colonial era. For example the following are preserved:
Cathedral de Santa Catalina
Church of San Francisco
Convent of La Recoleta
Today, Cajamarca is the largest city in the highlands of Peru and the fifth of the entire Peruvian north after Trujillo, Chiclayo, Piura and Chimbote. Now is a time of economic growth driven by the development of mining.
Public transportation is comfortable; there are different types, for example: buses, taxi and motorcycle taxi.
