And she never realized there was a world aparta and outside of her imagination>
The Marroqui sisters’ parents (for that is how they are known in the circus circuits) were originally from Manizales City, situated in the lovely central region of Colombia. The city was settled in the highest reaches of the Central Andes’s summits, and from its vantage point, it dominates the views to the coffee zone.
The Santander Street is the only horizontal stretch in the city, and it is also its main street. All the rest of the streets either ascend abruptly or descend in the same sharp manner, as if they were vertical ramps in that rugged topography.
Manizales could easily be considered the City of the Landscapes, for as the pedestrian walks its streets, he enjoys an uninterrupted view to either side of the street, the view extending as far as his eyesight is capable of reaching out.
