A must if you are visiting Huaraz. The village is beautiful, beautifully preserved, and you can enjoy very pleasant moments enjoying its gastronomy, visiting its church, and also the workshop of Don Bosco, very impressive. I also recommend visiting artisan bakeries that have some fabulous products.
