Emberá Chunga: Banks of The Sambú
Chunga is an Emberá village located on the banks of the Sambu River and surrounded by the magnificent and mysterious Darién jungle. The beauty of the mangroves, birds, and other plant and animal life is stunning. Due to the village’s relative isolation, visitors have the opportunity to experience Emberá culture in a community less touched by external influences.
