Five Magical Days in San Pedro de Atacama
There is so much to do in this magical place that you must stay five days to fit it all in!
Tierra Atacama, committed to sustainability and a connection with local culture, continues the tradition of incorporating centuries-old construction techniques from the region into every corner of its ongoing renovation. This massive project is progressing rapidly, gearing up for its grand opening in April 2025.
This renovation will be evident not only inside the hotel but also from the exterior, with its beautiful adobe walls – a type of construction commonly found throughout San Pedro de Atacama. These bricks serve to define spaces and act as a sort of enclosure around the hotel.
Made with straw, water, clay, and other elements, these reddish blocks blend seamlessly with the surroundings, making them a sustainable and indigenous technique that also provides thermal insulation.
Germán Díaz Flores and Manuel Vera are part of the Tierra Atacama team dedicated to crafting these bricks. Today, they’ve shown us a fascinating process that even involves using tunas, the fruit of the cactus, as part of the production. They also emphasize the importance of dedication and care in this often-overlooked process, as it’s key to producing a high-quality brick.
