San Juan and Inca Necropolis (Warning)

Just outside the town of San Juan del Rosario is a Pre-Columbian Necropolis. This small patch of area is covered in fossilized coral a few metres high. The Inca of this area hollowed out the inside of these corals and they would put to rest their dead. Filling the void with precious things for those people so they can start their new life rich.

Taking a quick drive over to the town, we got to see all the varieties of quinoa grown and all their different colours.Read more
