From this point, we can also see a beautiful sunset.
Then we descend to our homes and have dinner with our respective families. Later we will see a folklore festival, where we can dance with the local people dances in the area. Previously, being in our homes, our families give us traditional clothing to attend the party. In the women they are dressed in very colorful skirts and blouses beautiful hand embroidery and a black veil. The men were given a very long one Chuyo poncho (wool cap typical of the Andes). Once ready, we will go to the party, in which we also find with many other tourists. The party lasted a couple of hours.
