It features colonial-style architecture, whitewashed houses with red clay tiled roofs, and streets paved with cobblestones. This laid-back bohemian town is known as a popular location for films. Major attractions include Capilla de Santa Barbara, the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, the Suarez River Canyon, the Museum of Guane, Cementerio Barichara and San Gil.
