Llama la atención el colorido de las ropas de la gente que va al mercado de Tarapoto , los hombres llevan los ponchos de rayas , los gorros que recuerdan los cascos de los conquistadores y las mujeres con sus bonitos chales y sus llamativos gorros
It catch your eye the people that goes to the Tarapoto market dressings , men wear stripped ponchos , caps that look like those of the conquerors and the women with their nice shawls and their striking hats
En el mercado deTarabuco se venden las hojas de coca , que las consumen constantemente , las mastican y hacen una bola que se les nota porque sobresale en su mejilla
Dicen que es lo mejor para el mal de altura , pero la verdad es que a mi no me hizo mucho efecto
In the Taramuco market they sell the coca leaves , that they consume constantly , they chew them and make a ball that you may see because protrude in their mouth
