That depends on what you consider "close".
The distance between the equator and various points
in Peru ranges from 2.76 miles to 1,267 miles.
It is warm in Peru because this particular country is in the northern area of South America. Therefore, it is close to the equator, the area of the earth that is always the closest to the sun. Being this close means that Peru is also close to the sun, a lot closer than Canada or Australia.
no for Peru yes for Uganda
Yes, Belém is a city located in Brazil and it is very close to the equator, which runs through the northern part of the country. This proximity to the equator gives the city a hot and humid tropical climate throughout the year.
No, Peru is not on the Equator. It is located in South America, and its latitude ranges from about 0-18° South, which places it mainly in the Southern Hemisphere. The Equator lies north of Peru, passing through countries like Ecuador and Brazil.
Yes, it is. That's how it got its name. There is a monument called "La Mitad Del Mundo," just outside of Quito, the capital city. Unfortunately, the architects of the monument were off by a few hundred meters. But they were close and that's all that matters, right??
Peru and Ecuador are both so close to the equator so they can grow the same crops
because its not canada? XD
Peru is south of the equator (technically it is inaccurate to say it is below the equator).Northern Peru is actually within ONE KILOMETER of the equator, on the border with Colombia near the Ecuador-Colombia-Peru common point. Coincidentally, the Putumayo River is the northern boundary of Peru and is almost exactly along the equator, running east and west at that point.
