The region is home to two UNESCO Biosphere Reserves—Bosques de Neblina and Avireri-Vraem—protecting diverse cloud forest ecosystems. Key landmarks include the glacial pass of Abra Huaytapallana, the towering Puya raimondii plants of Nor Yauyos Cochas, and the monument marking the geographic center of Peru.
