Neighbourhood information

The neighborhood is called "El Chorro" and is characterized by being quiet and safe. In it is located "La casa del sombrero" (museum).

The main street is Rafael Maria Arizaga, whose width is approximately 6 meters. Having been one of the first streets to be built in the city, it is common to see old adobe houses dating from the Republican era. Its proximity to Calderon Park (central park), and commercial establishments, makes its location very interesting.
