City

Zarumilla

South America

Zarumilla is a city in the Tumbes Region of northwestern Peru, the capital of Zarumilla Province and the main settlement of Zarumilla District. It lies only a few kilometres from the border town of Aguas Verdes, which a bridge connects to Ecuador, so the city serves as a route of international trade with Ecuador, alongside a local economy focused on farming. The surroundings were the location of the Battle of Zarumilla, fought from 23 to 31 July 1941 during the 1941 Ecuadorian-Peruvian War.
