Tomayquichua District is one of eight districts of the province Ambo in Peru.[1] Despite its size and population, it is actually a place that receives a bit of tourism (almost entirely domestic) due to locally popular events that are hosted there such as “El Baile de Negritos”, or the domestically famous house of “La Perricholi”.
