Near of wonderful places to discover & visit, San Pedro is a paradise for those who love bikes & horses

At the center vehicles are not allowed, being so the kingdom of dogs

Hostals & hotels must preserve the local ambiance

Houses are made with a mix of adobe ( mud), stones & bricks

Mostly all the restaurants have a big hole in the roof to let a wooden fire burn as the only way of heating the place during the very cold nights

This man sells ostrich´feathers, to clean away dust, very common in Sud America just till now that is considered in «danger of extintion» and so being replaced by plastic
