Huascarán National Park
Huascarán National Park ((スペイン語:Parque Nacional Huascarán)) is a Peruvian national park that comprises most of the mountain range known as Cordillera Blanca (the world's highest tropical mountain range) which is part of the central Andes, in the region of Ancash.〔 The park covers an area of 340.000 ha (ca. 3.400 km2) and is managed by the Peruvian Network of Protected Natural Areas SERNANP.〔 Huascaran National Park, designated as a World Heritage Site in 1985 by UNESCO, is also a well-known mountaineering spot and harbors a unique biodiversity with emblematic species of plants such as Queen of the Andes, trees of the genera ''Polylepis'' and ''Buddleja'', and animals such as spectacled bears, condors, vicunas and tarucas.〔
The elevational range of Huascarán National Park goes from 11.483 to 22.205 feet (3.500 to 6.768 m) with the maximum elevation corresponding to Huascarán, the highest mountain in Peru. As a result of which, the landscape is dominated by snowy peaks and U-shaped valleys formed by glaciers, with the valleys and lower mountain slopes covered with scattered high andean forests and puna grassland.〔
==History==
Its protection was initially arranged by the Peruvian government in 1975〔(SERNANP info page about Huascarán National Park ) 〕 in order to safeguard flora and fauna, geological formations, archaeological remains (including relics of the Chavin culture), and the panoramic scenery of the Cordillera Blanca, and to encourage scientific research into the area's natural and cultural resources. Tourism is promoted in the area, making its protected status a source of wealth for its inhabitants and others. In 1985 the park was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travelnews/10999939/21-World-Heritage-Sites-you-have-probably-never-heard-of.html )〕
