The Lima Province is a province in the central coast of Peru. It is unique in that it is the only province in the country that does not belong to any of the twenty-five regions. The city of Lima, which is the nation's capital, is located in the province. The province is bordered by the Pacific Ocean and the Callao Region on the west, and the Lima Region (provinces of Cañete, Canta, Huaral and Huarochirí) on the north, east, and south.
