Moyobamba - Peru



Moyobamba - PeruMoyobamba is a city and capital of the San Martin Region in northern Peru. There are about 50 thousand inhabitants. Some 3,500 species of orchid are native to the area, which has led to the city's nickname of The City of Orchids. The city is the capital of both Moyobamba Province and Moyobamba District.

The name Moyobamba derives from the Quechua word "muyupampa" meaning "circular plain".


It is linked by road with Tarapoto to the southeast, Rioja to the west and Bagua to the northwest. Roads connect Moyobamba to the Pacific coast by way of Bagua and Olmos to the north and Cajamarca to the southwest.
