The Atacama Desert in Chile rises to quite a peculiar sight, multiplying by Condé Nast Traveler.Man is alongside the left hand quite negligible in size.Man is alongside the left hand quite negligible in size.
It is La Mano del Desierto, Desert hand, 12-meter-high concrete sculpture.
A huge hand rose in the middle of dry sand over 25 years ago. Copper mines in receipt of income from Antofagasta city commissioned the sculpture and asked include sculptor Mario Irarrazabal to create something in the middle of the desert of emptiness. He carried out an enormous hand of the sculpture, which was erected in the desert about an hour's distance from Antofagasta.around the sculpture is not much more than sand and low hills.
Therefore, the hand is a confusing sight when it detects passing near the Pan American Motorway. The surrounding area is not found in any other tourists interesting as a large observatory, operating in connection with which the hotel was also seen in James Bond film Quantum of Solace.
The left hand in a desert place attracts a large number of engines pedestrians to stop and capture the surreal vision of snapshots. But isolation because of the place also attracts vandalism factors, and the sculpture's sides are often painted with graffiti.
Today, it is cleaned twice a year, largely by volunteers.
