streets; it is in the town's Main Plaza where every Sunday is the famous "Indian
Market" that attracts hundreds of peasants from the surrounding communities who
descend from the mountains in order to perform their commercial transactions. a
vast sector of it displays handicrafts or "souvenirs" Therefore, nowadays it is
possible to find two markets in the same spot: the "Indian" one and the
touristic. In general, this is a good place to shop for pottery that is made
locally and somewhat old weavings (15 or 20 years). On the other hand, on Sunday
mornings, by 11:00 am. there is a Catholic Mass in the church for the local
populace as well as for the "Varayoq" (whom has a "vara", that is, a staff of
