A welcoming and charming community
Now that I visited the first House of Gaiman that is now a museum, built the same year by David D. Roberts, I got to visit the street where it was built with chapels, schools, gardens and the post office with the roof, windows and doors painted a perfect green now. Today is the home of a settler and his family. The town of Gaiman (or stone point in tehuelche language) was constructed in 1874 after the arrival of a second contingent of Welsh who settled in the valleys because there was water and transformed the semi arid desert into a green valley. This can be seen touring the place, with it's ancient buildings, schools, houses, chapels, their irrigation channels, their alfalfa and talking to the locals, who are Welsh, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Arabs, a welcoming and charming community.
