Are characterised by its force, its relation with the cattle and agricultural activity, its colour and the use of native musical instruments. There are many the registered dances, but you may observe two big groups: aymaras and quechuas. It is possible to distinguish them by the rithym or music ((Qenachos, Qawiris, Sicuris, Ayarachis, Wiphalas, K'ajchas, Choquelas, Pulis, amongst others), many of which are accompanied by songs and the dresses. The aymara women use many “polleras” (skirts) each of different colour and the quechua women use black “polleras” adorned with multi coloured stripes; their dresses are characterised by their cheerful and flary “monteras” (hat).
