Quillabamba is a city in southern Peru and the capital of La Convención Province, the largest province by area in the Cusco Region. It lies in the high jungle, where the Urubamba River flows past the town from the south. Agriculture is the most important activity, principally coffee, cacao, tea and coca, and the town is a mixture of Andean and Amazonian migrants. The river is also a source of gold and rare-earth minerals. The Peruvian-Israeli footballer Raul Geller, born in 1936, is listed as a notable resident.
