Coracora District is one of eight districts of the Parinacochas Province in Peru.[1]
Some of the highest elevations of the district are Suparawra at 5029m (16,499feet) and Q'illu Urqu at approximately 5000m (16,000feet), both on the border with the Upahuacho District. Other mountains are listed below:[2]
For a detailed account of the history of this city (up to c. 1951) 'La Monografia de la Provincia de Parinacochas' is a very good source. The two volume book details not only historical, but cultural information.[3]
