The Tropics are the land and sea areas between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn which are 23.5 degrees north(Cancer) and south(Capricorn) of the Equator.
These areas are typically hot, humid and rainy, with lush vegetation and lots of insects, snakes and reptiles. But these conditions are most pronounced at or near sea level and change as the land rises, e.g. into mountains. There is also plenty of desert in the Tropics
