Even the cows are contented in the little village of Guaitil. The main attraction here is the ethnic pottery. The women have been making it the same way for generations, with clay dug from the hills nearby. |
|  | Pottery for sale They have their pottery on display on roadside racks and tables. Some are on display in their homes. Just stop and browse. You are sure to see a few pieces that you cannot live without. I bought a piece that was shaped like a turtle. |
