Description
Our activity begins in Cuenca, the city called the Athens of Ecuador for its beauty that combines nature and culture. From the meeting point we will go to a Museum Workshop where the traditional fabric of the Ecuadorian toquilla straw hat is exhibited, which is considered Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity declared by UNESCO since December 5, 2012. Here you will enjoy in detail the history and current events of a craftsmanship admired in the world, appreciating first hand the making of the hat, from the artisanal hand weaving, the work of the potting machines, the steam presses and the finishes with the making of bands and morocco. After this experience we embark to the most important Archaeological Complex in Ecuador 'Ingapirca' where you will enjoy a walk full of ancestral energy of the Inca and Cañari cultures, you will enjoy magical corners sculpted in stone hundreds of years ago in a masterful way.
