Zamora-Chinchipe

Zamora-Chinchipe is a Province of the Republic of Ecuador, located at southeastern end of the Amazon Basin, which shares borders with the Ecuadorian provinces of Azuay and Morona-Santiago to the north, Loja and Azuay to the west, and with Peru to the east and south. The province comprises an area of approximately 10.556 km^(2) and is covered with a uniquely mountainous topography which markedly distinguishes it from the surrounding Amazonian provinces.

Zamora-Chinchipe is characterized and largely identified by its mining industry; indigenous ethnic groups with a rich archaeological legacy; its biodiversity; and its niche and tourist attractions, which include a number of waterfalls well-noted for their beauty. The province takes its name from the bureaucratic fusion of the Zamora and Chinchipe cantons. The provincial capital is the city of Zamora.
