IPHAN and Walkways constructions

Today I decided to continue talking about archaeological sites, and how to preserve them. Actually is a difficult duty, not for experts. In particular IPHAN (National, Historical and Artistic Heritage) it's a Brazilian institution which support, basically the preservation of the World Culture Heritage. 

This week I received Onésimo Santos and Valdecir dos Santos. Onésimo is a great and renowned archaeologist  and he takes care of the project in order to infrastructure the WALKWAYS connecting both sites Xique-Xique O and II, both located in Carnaúba dos Dantas, Rio Grande do Norte State. As you now, I'm a Brazilian educator (not graduated, just a volunteer), a Tour Guide and a Tour Coordinator. That's why I had not enough time to update my blog. So far, both archaeological's are closed for visitors, but it'll open next March. 

About the infrastructures they are really necessary because it is going to attract tourists from Brazil and foreigners. Check out the pictures bellow.

Nice post, the back drop on your photo's looks really green and pretty. When they open it to the public maybe you can go back up there and get some really good pictures. Thanks for sharing Carlos.

Have a great weekend friend :)
