On display

The traditional thatched farmhouses here are vibrant and unique. First things first, you’ll have to discover these gorgeous bright red and blue structures – they make Santana like a real-life museum. There’s also a theme park, arts and crafts shops, and natural land that’s a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Explore the lot.
