Descrição
Discover the magic of Acopia on a unique cultural journey. Take part in an ancient weaving workshop with local weavers, enjoy an organic lunch, and connect with the living history of the Andes.
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive from Cusco to the "Four Lakes" circuit, which will take you to the traditional village of Acopia: the land of Valicha. Upon arrival, you'll be warmly welcomed by a local association of expert weavers, who will greet you with traditional Quechua songs and garlands of wildflowers.
You will discover the secrets of natural dyeing using local organic materials — such as cochineal and native flowers — and learn how to grind the ingredients on ancestral grinding stones. Afterward, you'll enjoy a masterclass on the backstrap loom, where you'll weave your own textile piece by hand and learn how to interpret traditional Andean iconography.
You'll share a delicious communal lunch prepared with organic ingredients harvested in the community itself. Finally, you'll dress up in Acopia's colorful, finely embroidered traditional clothing and learn the lively steps of the *huayno* dance on the shores of the beautiful lagoon, before embarking on the comfortable journey back to Cusco.
