The handwork that preserves ancestral traditions is at the heart of what we want to share with you in Barichara.

This experience begins with a walk through town, exploring its diverse architectural styles. Then, at the workshop, you’ll uncover the secret behind Barichara’s timeless beauty: the tapia pisada (tread wall) and bahareque techniques — ancient building methods still used today.

With your own hands, you’ll build a scale model using wood, mud, and water, just as locals have done for generations — connecting with the history, craftsmanship, and spirit of this remarkable place.
