The braiding tradition of the Zenú people, in the department of Sucre, is part of the cultural legacy that since the pre-Hispanic period has been transmitted from generation to generation, reflecting their worldview and relationship with the territory, through crafts.

This demonstration covers everything from the process of sowing and harvesting the fiber of the arrow cane (Gynerium sagitatum), to its preparation process for braiding. Its most famous product, the “vueltiao” hat, is recognized worldwide. This event contributes to productive development, sustainable land use and sustainable tourism in the area.
