You wouldn’t know by looking at it but Diriomo, Nicaragua is known as the Witchcraft capital of the Meseta. The practices and beliefs date back to Nicaragua’s indigenous roots. Diriomo is also one of the Los Pueblos Blancos, or White Villages, of Nicaragua. Each is know for something different, such as pottery or plant nurseries.
It was the last stop after a day of village hopping before taking the local bus back to Granada. The small town was full of activity in the late afternoon. A local eatery served up a large fried chicken platter before we hit the road. There were no tourists in sight.
