[edit] Article Innaccuracies

This artícle seems rather a description of the Central Andes than the Altiplano itself. Altiplano is an expression used in Spanish to refer to high and flat (like a table)lands. Having said this, the Bolivian Altiplano is an area within the Central Andes and not the central andes themselves as it is sugested by this article.

Another mistake, the word páramo is not a synonymous with altiplano, but a word used to refered to a type of cold mountain climate where the only type of vegetation is "frailejón".

The word altiplano is also used to refer to the highlands of central Colombia where several important Colombian cities stand including the capital Bogotá.--tequendamia 07:02, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
