Tacna, Southern province in Peru.
The province covers 8,066 square kilometers of terrain, encompassing desert landscapes, mountain ranges, and agricultural lands along the Pacific coast of Peru.
The province experienced Chilean administration from 1883 to 1929, returning to Peru through the Treaty of Lima after negotiations between both nations.
Indigenous populations of Aymara and Quechua descent maintain their languages and traditions throughout the eleven districts of the province.
The province connects Peru with Chile through multiple border crossings, making it a center for international commerce and transportation networks.
The Barroso mountain range contains mineral deposits and provides water resources that support agriculture in the desert climate conditions.
