Huaraz y Cordilleras Blanca & Negra

Huaraz, in the Rio Santa valley, is the capital of the department Ancash (the size of Scotland or Holland). Most of the city was completely destroyed in the 1970 earthquake.

Huaraz is surrounded by two mountain ranges: the Cordillera Blanca to the east & Cordillera Negra to the west. The valley is called El Callejon de Huaylas.
