The city of Tarma is located in the center of the Province
of Tarma; 232 kilometers east of the city of Lima, in the mountain ranges of
the Andes. Its location consolidates as the point of nexus between the central
coast (departments of Lima and Ica), the Andean provinces of the department of
JunÃn and the Central Forest (provinces of Chanchamayo and Satipo). The city is
situated within a fertile valley, where many important civilizations lived in
the past, from pre-Inca cultures to the Inca Culture. Evidence can be found
through archaeological remains
