Peru Vacation Packages - Hualhuas, Huancayo

http://www.fertur-travel.com/huancayo_tours.html Hualhuas lies 12 kilometers from Huancayo in the Mantaro Valley and is famous for the birdlife in nearby wetlands and for its weavers in town. The surrounding land is an extension of established lagoons, home to a species of duck called the Huachua. The plentiful birds name is a play on Hualhuas. But it also has a strong textile tradition, where weavers are seen as craftsmen who create elaborate designs on their looms, using sheep and alpaca wool. They use natural dyes, allowing them to create complex, polychromatic patterns. Most of the population divides their time between farming and weaving. After theyve sown their crops they spend the time waiting for the harvest working on the loom. Fertur Peru Travel.
