The sprawling archaeological zone of Chan Chan is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the largest adobe constructions on earth.

		<description><![CDATA[While I was staying up in Cajamarca, located in Peru's northern Andean mountains, I heard the word Yanacocha, a word that popped out in conversations from time to time. It's not a Spanish word, but it has a playful sound and for some reason it seemed rather important to everyone in Cajamarca. Well, as it turns out, they were talking about the Minera Yanacocha (Yanacocha Mine), which is not only important to the folks of Cajamarca. Minera Yanacocha just happens to be the largest gold mine in South America!]]></description>
