Punata – Tarata

2009-12-22_Bolivie_Punata_Mercado-3

As already said, I would’t be a teacher for kindergarden or primary school… So on Tuesday I escaped school and went to one of the biggest market in Bolivia: Punata – said to be one of the most beautiful and authentic one. Chichicastenango in Guatemala is really small compare to it! You can find literally everything there! From underwear to shoes, cow to pig – did you already hear a pig screeming?! It’s awful!!! – fruits and vegetables – of course plenty of potatoes :) – I always wonder if typical clothes and hat were one day new, I got the answer! :)

After a local soup in a typical Chicha, I headed back to Cochabamba stopping on my way in Tarata, typical village of the Alto Valley. Such a peaceful atmosphere with local architecture after the market ;)

Did you already hear a pig screeming?! It's awful!!!
