This small village has a bi lingual school about 250 people live in the village. It is located down a steep road from Astacinga. There are only a few grandmothers that still use traditional dress. This woman put her finest blouse over top of the shirt she was wearing covering the sash. The wrap skirt and blouse are typical for this region.
