Cabana, Peru

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cabana is a city in Peru. It is the capital of both the Cabana District and the Province of Pallasca in the Ancash Region of northern Peru. Cabana was founded on January 2, 1857, although human habitation there likely predates arrival of the Spanish Conquistadors.

The city is divided into four neighborhoods:

  • Huayumaca
  • Pacchamaca
  • San Jerónimo
  • Trujillo

The former President of Peru, Alejandro Toledo Manrique, was born in Ferrer, a village that is part of the District of Bolognesi. However, Dr. Toledo figures as a Cabana native having been registered in the Birth Registry of Cabana.
