Los Comondú: The Green Eldorado of Baja California, México | SLICE TRAVEL

Once upon a time in the West there was Comondu.
A Garden of Eden in the Far-West. Or rather, an oasis in America.
Located in Mexico, in Baja-California, Comondu is one of the 120 oases scattered along this vast 1,200 km long desert. It only rains here for a few days each year. And the temperature can reach 50 degrees. Yet, in Comondu, there are natural water sources and it is these sources that allowed the first Californians, who came from Europe, to conquer this desert region of America. And to bring about this miracle: growing grape vines in the dessert.
Researchers are fascinated by this Eldorado where water is transformed into wine.
At a time when temperatures on our planet are continually increasing, oases could be a great source of inspiration.
How have the men and women in these small paradises managed to adapt to such extreme temperatures?

Great! Another incomplete cut short glimpse into what could have been an interesting video.

At 6:45! This is not a rare case at all!! The Spanish crown legalized and promoted interracial marriage between Spaniards and Native American since 1504! Most Hispanic American countries are predominantly mestizo/mixed race people! This was the norm in the Spanish empire!!
