For other uses, see Tierra Caliente (music).
Tierra caliente (Spanish for hot land) is a term used in Latin America to refer to those places within that realm which have a distinctly tropical climate. The Tierra caliente forms at Sea Level to about 2500 ft.
Most locations within this zone are situated along coastal plains, but some interior basin regions also fit into the category. Here agriculture is dominated by the cultivation of crops with strong tropical associations, such as bananas.
