Well, seems like I didn't keep my promise... I'm talking about my last notebook entry. (https://www.italki.com/notebook/417384/entry/902134) In it, I planned to write an entry every day. Two days had passed and nothing happened. But... I'm just kidding, it wasn't a promise, just a plan. Well, here I am... This monday and tuesday (may 14 and 15) were holidays in Paraguay, so last weekend was very long (and luckily, this week was very short). Me and my girlfriend took advantage of the long weekend to visit Salta, a beautiful city surrounded by hills and mountains in the north of Argentina. This city is located in the province of Salta, of the same name. It took about 17 hours by bus from our home, mainly for the strict control in the Argentinian border and routes (some routes were under repair also). We arrived at sunset. After checking in at the hostel we went to walk around the city. Salta has small streets, beautiful squares and ancient and well preserved buildings.. Also, has a remarkable Catholic influence since there are many Catholic churches in the city. The empanadas salteñas are served as an appetizer in all restaurants in the region. Usually two empanadas are served. They are delicious. We visited some nearby towns in the province of jujuy: tilcara, humahuaca, punamarca. They all have and keep it's own customs. They have a lot of ancient civilizations influence. Actually, the names of the towns and mountains are Quechua words. Also we visited Cafayate, a small town surrounded by vineyards. We tried wine ice cream in there (recommended). We made a quick visit to the oldest local winery, called Vasija Secreta (The Secret Vessel) and enjoyed the tasting of wines made in there. We ended up buying 7 bottles of wine. There are many colored mountains and wonderful rock formations in the region. We visited: el cerro de los 7 colores, el cerro de los 14 colores (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ymso4KtuCvY), el anfiteatro, la garganta del diablo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkV8163aVhg). On last day, we visited the Salinas Grandes. This is a large area, where the ground is white because it is covered with salt. It is very close to the Andes Mountain range and the Chilean border. In fact, the Andes Mountain range can be seen from there. It's a beautiful landscape. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Prnw4OmGQEE) Well, this was a brief summary of my last weekend. I could write more about it later. Also I could write about other trips I've made. What do you think? Thanks for reading me!
