In the village of Torres, the lagoon is home to reeds and rushes, and from these two plants, people developed the art of transforming them into instruments of daily life, including basketry for various forms of transportation and mats for the ground or for shade. These are the arts and crafts we'll explore on this route, along with the local history.
