| Salta
Founded in 1582, still has a very Spanish feel. That's ironic, because
Salta is where the decisive battle for independence from Spain took place.
Today there are quite a few colonial buildings, some converted into museums,
that are worth a look.
Cafayate, 725 miles northwest of Buenos Aires, is a whitewashed pueblo, popular with Argentine tourists, is set in the middle of a wine-producing region. In Cafayate there is an archaeological museum and a wine museum Near the town is the La Quebrada de Cafayate, a group of strange red sandstone formations eroded by wind and water. Also near Cafayate are the extensive ruins of a Quilmes Indian city (defeated by the Spanish in 1667). |
