In Chile we took the bus to a small town called San Pedro de Atacama. It is the most touristy place we have been so far and a very interesting little village. The whole village is adobe and all the buildings are at a small human scale- it is like an oasis in the middle of the Atacama Desert. All the surrounding villages are also adobe and sit well in the landscape, responding to the contours of the land. The surrounding landscape is also quite magnificent with hot springs nearby and a volcano towering over the village.
