San Pedro de Atacama

Six month ago, travel make to San pedro de Atacama. This city  is my favorite place of the north of Chile. 

This is a place full of history and magic place. 

When this city was discovered by the spanish conquistadors in the XVIII, many indigenous people who lives in this place, they were attacked by these strange men. The Spanish me no mercy on the culture that was there, and just set oput to expand Catholicism. The first thing they did was build a church on an indian cemetery, showing that Catholicism is stronger.  San pedro de atacama is a fertile land, the spanish men  knew, starting a battle for those lands, but the indigenous people were so strong, and resisted for years the indifference of the spanish men.

Actually San Pedro is  a beautiful and touristic city, there are many place to visit : the valley of the moon, the “coyote”, the geiser of the Tatio and the lake cejar. In this place are the foreigners who most enjoy the scenary, like years ago.
