Salta

We traveled to the northwest region of Argentina. We rented a car and drove around many of the most picturesque regions of this country. We photographed many of the areas to show the vast coloration of the landscape and the diversity of the culture. Salta is known for its spicier food and access to the mountain regions for tourists. We stopped off in many small towns and stayed in several places along the way. In Salta, we enjoyed their multiple cathedrals, painted quite elaborately, and the cable car ride to the top of the mountain. The weather is quite different than BA, because it is much hotter and drier. The vegetation and the terrain looked very much like a combination of Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico to us.
