Salta, for us, was a nice elegant big city. We are not sure if that is our opinion because of where we are coming from or that it is truly a nice city. Our opinion on Argentina will for sure require more time than just a few days. We have had very few rain days on our journey to date so when it started raining in Salta we were ambivalent but after a night we decided to go to the mountains west of the city where it was sunny and dry. This is also when we decided to buy camping supplies and explore a different side of Argentina.
Street food junkies. |
The plaza de Armas of Salta. |
The main cathedral |
Garden-like setting in downtown. |
Classy Europeanesque pedestrian streets. |
We enjoyed the city energy while we were there. |
A wine kiosk in the middle of a mall. Now that is Argentina for you. |
With the Blue Dollar exchange rate at 15 pesos to a dollar this extra large bottle of Stella is a steal :) |
