Grab a slice of pizza. Manjessi is the local favorite for a quick, inexpensive bite before the sun dips. Arrive early to secure a seat.
19:45
Walk 26 minutes west-southwest to Freundschaft Park. The terrain is left in its natural state, offering an unobstructed view of the landscape as the settlers first saw it.
19:50
Watch the sun sink toward the west-southwest. The natural, undeveloped ground of the park provides a clear line of sight to the horizon.
20:05
Head back toward the cooperative area to the Museo Histórico. This former school turned museum recreates the early settler dwelling. Note that visits must be arranged in advance at the tourist office, so this stop is best for viewing the exterior architecture if the museum is closed.
Local tip
The museum is normally closed and visits must be arranged previously at the tourist office. If you plan to go inside, call ahead. Manjessi is popular at night, so it may be busy.
