Jalca Grande
Jalca Grande is the most traditional villages in the region. Women still wear their centuries-old clothing. Most still spin wool and weave. Their goods are sold at the Club de Madres La Navidad (Jr. San Pedro, facing the plaza; no sign) and at Pacha Maituna (Jr. Arriola, one block from the plaza). Friday is the traditional bartering market. The San Juan Bautista feast days, 24-26 June, include the Danza del Oso, or Spectacled Bear Dance. The Museo de Jalca Grande has good information about the culture and history of this town, and an excellent scale model of Óllape ruins (2 soles /$0.60US), irregular hours; contact Tourism Secretary Gladys Basán at Jr. Alvarado 550).
