Pathways to the Sertão
The reddish scenery of this region is astonishing, where the clay
ground cracks under the sun and the margins of the dried rivers form an
unmistakable image, with various clay blocks in different shapes. They
are real works of art that resist the sun, which is burning hot in the
region.
The predominant vegetation is formed by dry, leafless
plants, where the species that survive, such as the cactus, are the
strongest ones, like the population of the region; a unique population
that overcomes the poverty of the natural resources with naïveté and
joy. Work force and hospitality are the main qualities of this people
that seem to be amazed with everything they see.
Jorro's
thermal waters and the big mountain that is installed in Monte Santo,
place with a different climate from the other localities, are sought
after by tourists, who are looking for nature's blessings in the middle
of the dry land. Some fructiferous trees resist the climate and help
men survive.
