City of Sabandia: Wide terraces and
three volcanoes, the Misti, the Chachani,
and the Pichu Pichu, provide the scenery
around this traditional town. Some of
the houses still preserve characteristic
styles of the Viceroyalty or of the
nineteenth century Republicanism. A
recreational area with two swimming
pools that use the cold river waters of
the surrounding region has been built.
