(Translated by Google) In addition to the religious heritage, I recommend visiting it to see the standards of the Spanish army, obtained in the battles of Humahuaca and Salta. For those of us who enjoy our history, they are a true gem.
The frescoes reflect the moment when General Manuel Belgrano offered his command staff to the Virgin of Mercy.
The cane on display is a replica, given that the original is guarded by the National Army, as they explained to me.
The place is not permanently open, it is recommended to ask their hours.
(Original)
Además del patrimonio religioso, recomiendo visitarla para ver los estandartes del ejército español, obtenidos en las batallas de Humahuaca y de Salta. Para los que disfrutamos con nuestra historia, son una verdadera joya.
Los frescos reflejan el momento en que el General Manuel Belgrano le ofrenda a la Virgen de la Merced, su bastón de mando.
El bastón que se expone es una réplica, dado que el original lo custodia el Ejército Nacional, según me explicaron.
El lugar no está permanentemente abierto, re comiendo preguntar sus horarios.

The Catedral de Tucumán is the main church of the city, founded in 1685 according to some of its foundations. Its architecture is an interesting combination of colonial and Hispanic styles, with added features by French and Spanish architects in the 19th century. It also served as the seat of the archbishopric and center of government for the ecclesiastical province known as Tucumán.

The temple was founded in the sixteenth century and is home to the metripolitana Archdiocese of Tucuman.
The foundations of this cathedral building date from the period of the definitive founding of the city of San Miguel de Tucuman in 1685, long remained a humble building adobes with gabled of "musleras tiles" then keeping some simple style details Hispanic American colonial baroque.
In the mid-nineteenth century it is that parts began with the plans of the architect of Basque origin and French Pierre Etcheverry, such work is what has left virtually the building with the current appearance, being developed for the provincial government of Celedonio Gutierrez and inaugurated on February 19, 1856.

Av. 24 de Septiembre 420, T4000CNJ San Miguel de Tucumán, Tucumán, Argentina
The Government House is a municipal building in San Miguel, Tucuman, Argentina. Built in the early 1900s, it boasts French baroque and art nouveau features. It was constructed to address the lack of important buildings in the province and to promote urban renewal and development. The Governor at that time, Luis Nougues, initiated its construction to replace the colonial-era Cabildo building which still served as the seat of provincial administration.
The govenment house of Tucuman dates from the early 1900s built in a period style by the government to show the opulence and wealth of the province at that time.

(Translated by Google) An impressive architecture. French style. We went on a "guided tour" which was not really guided but is just access to the main hall where the governor gives lectures. From the outside the building is beautiful and seems very well cared for, but when you enter everything is very abandoned/neglected, there is a lot of spider web, the paintings are old and there are water leaks that damaged some paintings. I do not recommend that you wait to make the visit because it does not contribute anything, it is only to take photos for about 10 minutes. At the exit on our own we observed the Alberdi memorial, which we saw by chance because they do not show it.
(Original)
Una arquitectura imponente. Estilo francés. Fuimos a una "visita guiada" que en realidad no fue guiada sino que es sólo el acceso al salon principal donde da conferencias el gobernador. Por fuera el edificio es lindísimo y parece muy cuidado, pero al ingresar está todo muy abandonado/descuidado, hay mucha tela de araña, las pinturas están viejas y hay filtraciones de agua que dañaron algunas pinturas. No recomiendo que esperen para hacer la visita porque no aporta nada, sólo es para sacar fotos unos 10 min. A la salida por nuestra cuenta observamos el memorial de Alberdi, que lo vimos de casualidad pprque no lo muestran.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful historical place. Unfortunately the internal guided tours are a disaster, the staff treats you in a horrible way, they leave you standing on the side and don't tell you if there is a guide or not. The truth is that the historical character of the building is very poorly maintained and the treatment with tourists is handled very poorly.
(Original)
Hermoso lugar histórico. Lamentablemente las visitas guiadas internas son un desastre el personal te trata de una manera horrible, te dejan plantada a un costado y no te dicen si hay guía o no.

Agus — Google review
(Translated by Google) Taking into account that it is the most institutionally important building in the province and that it was declared a National Historical Monument, which houses the remains of the most illustrious Juan Bautista Alberdi from Tucumán, the neglect presented by the façade of this beautiful building in an eclectic style cannot be explained. by the architect Domingo Selva and who carried out the governorship of Luis Nougues back in 1912. The enhancement of the façade should be an essential task for a building of the institutional hierarchy that it possesses.
(Original)
Teniendo en cuenta que es el edificio institucionalmente más importante de la provincia y que fue declarado Monumento Histórico Nacional, que alberga los restos del tucumano más ilustre Juan Bautista Alberdi, no se explica el descuido que presenta la fachada de este hermoso edificio de estilo ecléctico realizado por el arquitecto Domingo Selva y que llevó adelante la gobernación de Luis Nougues por allá en el año 1912. La puesta en valor de la fachada debería ser una tarea imprescindible para un edificio de la jerarquía institucional que posee.
Osval Mulet — Google review
(Translated by Google) We were unlucky that the guide was sick. I don't know if that was why they only let us enter the white room and pass by Alberdi's tomb, we could see nothing else, except stairs and hallways in a very poor state of conservation as well as very dirty walls, windows and stained glass. In general the building is very neglected. A shame, as cute as it is.
(Original)
Tuvimos mala suerte de que la guía estaba enferma. No se si fue por eso que sólo nos dejaron entrar al salón blanco y pasar por la tumba de Alberdi, nada más pudimos ver, salvo escaleras y pasillos en muy mal estado de conservación al igual que paredes, ventanas y vitrales muy sucios. En general muy descuidado el edificio. Una pena, con lo lindo que es.

Osval Mulet — Google review
(Translated by Google) After having belonged to the Jesuits and, some time later, to the Dominicans, the temple became part of the Franciscan order. Begun in 1873 when it was decided to demolish the old temple that was showing worrying signs of deterioration and inaugurated in 1891. For this purpose the Italian Franciscan architect Friar Luis Giorgi was summoned. It was the main headquarters of the first Franciscan School in Argentina.
Among its attractions, the table where the act of Independence was signed, the first national flag flown in Tucumán, the main altar that was made by indigenous people from the missions, and the tomb of Monsignor José Agustín Molina stand out.
The temple was declared a National Historical Monument in 1964. The convent, created in 1902 on the old Jesuit school, was also declared a National Historical Monument in 1987.
(Original)
Luego de haber pertenecido a los jesuitas y, tiempo después, a los dominicanos, el templo pasó a ser parte de la orden franciscana. Iniciada en el año 1873 cuando se resolvió demoler el antiguo templo que daba preocupantes señales de deterioro e inaugurada en 1891. Para tal fin se convocó al arquitecto franciscano italiano Fray Luis Giorgi. Fue sede principal de la primera Escuela Franciscana en Argentina.
Entre sus atractivos, resaltan la mesa donde se firmó el acta de la Independencia, la primera bandera nacional enarbolada en Tucumán, el altar mayor que fue realizado por indígenas de las misiones, y la tumba del Monseñor José Agustín Molina.
El templo fue declarado Monumento Histórico Nacional en el año 1964. El convento creado en 1902 sobre el antiguo colegio jesuita, fue también declarado Monumento Histórico Nacional en el año 1987.

(Translated by Google) I am glad that the State is taking charge of the restoration.
As for the community, which governed the Convent, in 1982, it was very "selective", we were not able to visit the Church, it was the middle of summer, and my Lady was wearing a sleeveless T-shirt, but not low-cut.
For this reason, to this day I only know him through photos.
Draw conclusions....

Me alegro que el Estado, se haga cargo de la restauración.
En cuanto a la comunidad, que regia el Convento, en 1982, era muy "selectiva", no pudimos acceder a visitar la Iglesia, era pleno verano, y mi Señora vestía una remera sin manga, pero no escotada.
Por esto, al día de hoy solo lo conozco por fotos.

(Translated by Google) We arrived at Cerro de la Cruz finishing the "el pelao trail" (we learned from the locals that it is called that because it is the only one in the area that has less vegetation; it looks "peeled" compared to the characteristic green of the landscape). It is easily accessed by walking with the family since it does not present any difficulty. Bring water and enjoy the view.

A visit to the La Banda Jesuit Museum is highly recommended, as it offers an enriching and educational experience through a guided tour. The museum impresses with its remarkable historical significance. Although some visitors may find the tour guide slightly irritable, it does not diminish the overall value of the visit. Furthermore, this museum stands out for serving delicious empanadas at affordable prices. Additionally, the building itself exudes charm and authenticity, providing a truly traditional atmosphere that enhances the overall experience.
Best empanadas I had in Argentina for a very good price. Very nice building and really traditional atmosphere

(Translated by Google) Speechless. A scam, I have the memory of those absurd and meaningless audios, in addition to a totally out of focus scenic setting, for example, a soap opera from the time of the viceroyalty mixed with a dialogue between President Sarmiento and whoever was Governor at that time , comments about cheese..., some comments from the guide were most coherent, but when asked a question he only commented on a few things and in reality his appearance was a little scary. My bad, I paid for something totally incoherent

(Translated by Google) Everything is excellent! We did the 6-hour ride that goes through the hills with a stop to have a barbecue in the middle of the hills. Spectacular landscapes and very friendly and attentive guides. Ultra recommended for those who like to ride horses (otherwise there is a shorter option for those who want)
(Original)
Excelente todo! Hicimos la cabalgata de 6 hrs que vas por los cerros con un parate para hacer un asado en el medio de los cerros. Paisajes espectaculares y guías muy amables y atentos. Ultra recomendado para aquellos que les guste andar a caballo (sino hay una opción más corta para aquellos que quieran)

(Translated by Google) It was my first ride at the age of 55, I went with my best daughter and my wife. Jerónimo's attention from the first contact was optimal. The horses are gentle, they know everything about the mountains and they do it masterfully. Omar was our guide. We took a long 6 hour walk. With roast, cheeses and top quality wine. Omar is an excellent guide, he calms you down and gives you the right and necessary advice. After arriving at the resting place (halfway through the journey), he tells you where you can trek while he prepares the barbecue. Excellent meat, local cheeses, salad, soda and a good wine. Once finished, we headed back to another place to get some impressive views. It was exciting to be as a family away from the sounds of cell phones and other distractions. It is an experience that I recommend to all those who need to disconnect and recognize themselves in their relationship with nature and with those special beings that are horses. I definitely plan to return.
(Original)
Fue mi primera cabalgata ya a los 55 años, fui junto a mi hija mejor y mi esposa. La atención de Jerónimo desde el primer contacto fue óptima. Los caballos son re mansos, saben todo de la montaña y lo hacen con maestría. Omar fue nuestro guía. Hicimos en paseo largo de 6 horas . Con asado, quesos y vino de primera calidad. Omar es excelente guía, te tranquiliza y te da los consejos justos y necesarios. Después llegado al lugar de descanso (mitad de la travesía) te indica por dónde podés hacer un trekking mientras el prepara el asado. Excelente carne, quesos locales, ensalada, gaseosa y un buen vino. Terminado emprendimos la vuelta por otro lugar para obtener unas vistas impresionantes. Fue emocionante estar en familia lejos de los sonidos de celulares y otras distracciones. Es una experiencia que recomiendo a todos aquellos que necesitan desconectarse y reconocerse en su relación con el naturaleza y con esos seres tan especiales que son los caballos. Sin duda pienso volver.

(Translated by Google) Several years ago, I had the opportunity to visit this place. I returned in January 2022 and I found a completely renovated place, very busy and with practically everything you need to spend a vacation and enjoy the place. The lake lends itself to walks, sports and there is even a beach with lifeguards. Also an amphitheater, a museum and the chairlift that takes you to the top of the hill from where you can see the landscape with impressive views of the lake and even the city of Tucumán. highly recommended

También un anfiteatro, un museo y la aerosilla que te lleva a la cima del cerro desde donde se puede observar el paisaje con unas vistas impresionantes del lago y hasta de la ciudad de Tucumán.

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful places in Tucumán. With paid and free places to spend the day. I don't recommend staying in places with a lot of people. You rent a kayak or canoe and go to different bays with friends or family.
Accommodation to spare. Gastronomic places. Leisure activities (trekking, kayaks, chairlift, etc.) And lots of nature.
The Weekends. I recommend going early or mid-morning.
(Original)
Uno de los lugares más lindos de Tucumán. Con lugares pagos y gratis para pasar el día. No recomiendo quedarse en lugares con mucha gente. Te alquilas un kayak o canoa y te vas a distintas bahías con amigos o familia.

Los Findes. Recomiendo ir a la mañana temprano o media mañana.

The Teleférico San Bernardo offers a scenic view of the city from the top of its 1 kilometer ascent. Taking the gondola up is an easy option, or you can also walk the steps down to enjoy stunning views of Buenos Aires.
Splendid view of the city. Just buy the way up as you can easily walk down through the forrest path on your way down.
Ludovic Seri — Google review
I think the attendant should get more involved in moving the crowd into the cars. There was a fairly long line and some folks were going up only two at a time, when the cars could carry at least four individuals. It made things unnecessarily slow.
Sergio Rocha — Google review
Very nice ride up the gondola, $6.25 USD per person at current market rate. Beautiful palm trees and walks, garden and view at the top. Also the option to walk up or down but it is pretty long. Water feature wasn't working which is too bad. There is a generic touristy restaurant and a highly rated resuarant but it's closed Monday and tuesday

When visiting Salta this one should be on your list , One gets a good panoramic view of the city and the surrounding area, The travel up and down the hill is quite fun, A small coffee shop to enjoy a drink and take in the view before the short return trip ,
The cost is 2200 pesos per person
Yuval Krikman — Google review
If you have time and it's a nice sunny day it's worth going up. It's not a must do in the city, but it is nice.

Teleférico San Bernardo is the station for the aerial tramway to the top of the hill.
You can get the talk just walk-in, price is S.500 for a return trip, and usually there is queue for the ticket, but usually only took less than 10 mins.
As each of the car is for 4 person, staffs may put you with other people together if you only have 2. However, if the queue is short, you may request to have a private car, staffs are friendly and usually ok to do so.
After 10 mins will take you to the top of the hill, and the view is very nice in between
Brett Kwong — Google review
Walking up or down is a nice option, views are reasonable if not overly impressive (there are a lot of trees obscuring the views) - definitely worth it if you have some time free.

Great experience to travel up in a cable car. Very cheap.
San Bernardo's Hill, also known as Cerro San Bernardo, is a popular spot in Salta for outdoor activities and relaxation. It offers stunning panoramic views of the city from its summit, which can be reached by climbing over 1,000 steps or taking a cable car from Parque San Martin. At the top, visitors can enjoy a restaurant with gourmet dining options and explore beautiful gardens.
I hiked to the top of the hill. The trail up is really well-maintained and is stairs most of the way. Wonderful view from the top. I hiked up in the early morning hours and the trail is lit most of the way and I felt very safe.
Philip Fox — Google review
I walked up and down twice. The stairs are uneven and can get slippery in the rain, they are also very dark at night (bring a flashlight). But there were lots of people, even at night. at the top there is a restaurant open for lunch and it's pretty good. Great views of the city.

The experience was quite good.
You will have to purchase tickets. It costs around 2200 pesos per person in the month of May 2023. It can increase depending upon inflation.
Please keep your tickets with you till you return back from hills. You will need it while returning as well.
You will have to wait in a long queue to purchase tickets and onboard the cable car.
Wait time will be higher during return if you want to return at the closing hour at night around 7:30 PM. We had to wait in a queue for 1 hour while returning.

At first I had a doubt wether it's worth it or not but I definitely recommend coming here if you have extra 1-2 hours. The upper area has amazing view on Salta and it's a very cozy and green area where you will find not so many choices to sit but there are some benches. Some people have no respect and sit at the places where people want to take pictures so that can be annoying. There is also some cafe but I didn't go there. The round trip costs 2200 pesos per person.

Brian Wilson — Google review
Not very interesting, you have to climb a lot of stairs during around 1 hour, or take the telepheric. At the top, you don't have a 360 view panorama , but you can only see the city. No park to chill, and a fake waterfall. But there are sports installations and public toilets, and a restaurant.
Auré Gumy — Google review
Good hike! There are stairs beginning next to the Anthropological Museum. You can choose the same way to go back down ir take the road to descend, with better views of the city. Bear in mind you'll end up in a different neighbourhood, though (around 500m behind the bus station)

This trip was disappointing there did not advise prior that the water features were not in operation which was my primary reason to go up there again. There is a restaurant up top which we didn't go to but the bar/cafe was nice with a great view for a sunset
Basílica de San Francisco is a large, imposing colonial-style Catholic church and National Historical Monument. The striking red, white and gold color scheme is memorable, as is the 173-foot (53m) bell tower. Saint Francis is often associated with Salta, so it's no surprise this church stands out.
So colorful and beautiful inside. They are 3 churches like this near the square. All are beautiful. Free to go inside and maybe you can say a prayer if you want.

Not as rich and fancy as other basilicas but from the outside it does look beautiful. Also, some stuff inside look a little creepy and scary. Seems like they didn't have enough budget to create something better

Amazing!!! I absolutely recommend doing the guided visit (only ARS 4000 for foreigners at the time of this post). So much history involved since the foundation of Salta.

Damien Frennet — Google review
The most notable thing about the Minor Basilica and Convent of San Francisco is actually its bell tower, which at a height of 54 meters is the tallest of all South America. The whole exterior of this church looks stunning, especially when its rich red color contrasts against the blue skies of Salta. Unfortunately the exterior is not as well kept as it would deserve and you can see paint and stucco falling off from the walls here and there, also at the base of the bell tower. The price to visit the museum, at under 2 USD, is very reasonable and absolutely worth it, especially if you are fit enough to climb the stairs inside the bell tower. Alternatively, it is also very beautiful at night, when it is really nicely illuminated.
Niccolo' Bertoldi — Google review
The visit worth every penny... The tour, the explanations, the passion explaining every single detail and the empathy, the smile….. Jazmín was the best guide!!! You will explore the whole Basilica, from the architecture, their story; to the Franciscan order and their influence, work and help with the aborigines. You will learn about architecture, history, Franciscan philosophy, aborigines, and more. And also you can buy gifts made from the order.

A beautiful building both inside and outside! We were told there was an English tour in the afternoon - but when we turned up we were told it was only in Spanish. For 1000 pesos it was still worth doing to see the inside courtyard and up to the top of the tower.

The History Museum of the North is a restored government building from the 1700s located in Salta Province, Argentina.

Plaza 9 de Julio, located in Salta, Argentina, is a public space that commemorates the country's independence day. It is characterized by its lush green trees and colorful flowers that adorn the surroundings. The plaza holds historical significance as it is surrounded by numerous notable buildings, including the Catedral de Salta where General Juan Antonio Alvarez's remains are kept. Additionally, visitors can enjoy various coffee shops and restaurants with excellent views of the cathedral.
Nice plaza to eat some food and chill with a cold beer. It can be busy though at times.

Museum of High Altitude Archaeology is a renowned museum in Salta province, Argentina that specializes in Inca culture and archaeology. The museum features exhibitions on the history of high altitude archaeology as well as displays of mummified bodies and artifacts from the region.
It is a great museum. What a pity that not everything is translate to english. You can buy an english guide in the shop, I missed this because when I asked at the ticket office they ensured me that everything is traslaze in english and the guide cost more than the entrance. Still it is really worth it.

It's not too big but very interesting if Inca culture attracts you. Relatively cheap (I paid $1200 as a foreigner; argentinians, people from salta, and people with disabilities get increasingly high discounts, disabled people paying nothing). They only expose one child's mummy at a time, you can know in the entrance which is it.
The only CON I must say is that not only is it too dark at times, but also, you're not allowed to take pictures AT ALL. They say it's for preservation (what harm can a camera without flash cause? Not more than a human breathing carbon dioxide inside a room, hm?), I think it's to keep the inside a "secret" so they keep attracting tourists.
Overall it was interesting, and I'm not that much into archeology and anthropology — for those people it will be even more enjoyable for sure.
Lucas Florentino — Google review
I quite liked the museum.
As some people here state correctly it’s a rather small exhibition, but honestly its still a good one.
They have lots of descriptive texts and QR-Codes that you can scan and a very informative film at the beginning of the tour.
The price might be a little high, but they also go above and beyond to preserve and do research on the three mummies, which also has to be financed somehow. They also only display the artifacts found with the mummies, so there aren’t too many things on display. All the information, the texts and little films play together nicely though and in combination with other museums this will give you a deeper understanding of the Incan empire and its culture.

Spent about 10 minutes inside. As a tourist, I had to buy a ticket online and register on another site without English options. The ticket itself is like 3$ cad so very affordable, but... Even if you register online and have your ticket, you still get in the same line as everyone else buying a ticket that day... Makes no sense!

Beautiful little museum built around the discovery of 3 mummified children in a volcano near Salta. Only one child is displayed at a time, but there are many displays of the items found with the children. There are several short, informative videos with English subtitles that provide the history of the find, the preservation of the children, and basic information about the original people.

There is, for want of a better turn of phrase, a roster for the children sacrificed on the mountain top. The child whose body was struck by lightning was available to see when we were there. It is important to remember that, whatever our current beliefs, some no less mistaken or bizarre, this child, perfect in her own way, went to die for the safety of her people. Go, see her or her companions, but please, remember to respect her courage and her ultimate sacrifice for her peoples. Salta is worth visiting if only to see, and pay your respects to, these extraordinary young people.
In passing the cultural insights offered by this museum are certainly worth seeing independent of the children. Would I travel to Salta for the reason of the rest of the museum alone? No. If in Salta would I consider it an error not to go? Yes. The children, frozen in body and time, make the journey across Argentina absolutely worth while. Just, when you go, pause to consider the enormity of her sacrifice and use that as a window to consider your own life perhaps.

THE thing to do in Salta. The museum gives a great overview in both Spanish and English of the Inca traditions related to human sacrifice. There are many displayed objects, and at the end you see one of the three children. Super interesting to see.
Don't miss on the second floor the "queen" another mummy who was not cared for when she was looted in 1920.
It takes less than one hour.

The experience was really good. It is really shocking to see the mummies in real life. The atmosphere is very well designed. I recommended to buy the tickets through the webpage because otherwise you have to wait a lot to buy it.

One of the most memorable it will be. To learn about the historic times and the native people, one travels back into time. Simply beautiful. The English translation is very helpful on the written scripts.

Small well organized museum. During peak hours it can be a bit troublesome to navigate the exposition areas. I found it interesting because of the historical and scientific value of the work that is being carried out. I am glad I was able to support the museum.

If you’re going to close and can’t tell everyone, put it on your google maps listing!
That at least gives us a chance to find out.
We’re only in Salta two days and you’re closed for both of them.

Disappointing museum. Perhaps due to being over-hyped. I was charged US$8.50. For museums in Argentina, that is a lot.
There were just two mummies on display. One badly preserved and the other in exceptional condition. Otherwise, on display was a very very limited number of artifacts. What the museum mostly seems to consist of, are volumes worth of descriptions written on the walls.
If the museum included an audio guide, it would be with $4 given the tiny (very tiny) collection.
If you’ve never been to any of the Andean archeological museums in Quito, Bogota, Cuzco, Chan Chan, Lima, Arequipa or Santiago, you will enjoy this one.
But it was touted as being the better of the top two. And is the bottom of my list of all the ones that I’ve listed.
No photos allowed (even without flash) of the museums limited collection is a bummer.

Once you get past the creepy aspect of the human sacrifice, this is a must see museum in Salta. Extremely rare exhibit of the mummy’s of children extremely well preserved. And a detailed intimate glimpse into the Inca civilization culture.
Max Rapoport — Google review
Its a small but very nice museum. It helps you unserstand more about the incas and their culture. In the end of the exhibition you can see an inca mummy.
Daniel Brito — Google review
Highly recommended. You'll get to see one of the mummies, if you so choose (there's an option to walk around that specific part, avoiding the sight)
The self-guided visit offers an English version of the storyline. Bear in mind it's really cold in summer inside this museum, you should grab a ligth jacket to wear. Foreign visitors paid around 7 US dollars entry fee. No pictures are allowed.
La Protti — Google review
It might seem expensive by Argentinian standards (8000pp for foreigners) but it's well worth it!
The artifacts are incredibly well preserved and the colours are still bright! The mummies are incredible and look as though they could wake up at any moment.
Descriptions in both Spanish and English
The imposing pink cathedral of Salta is one of the most important churches in south america. The building was completed in 1882 after an earlier church was destroyed in an earthquake. It features a rectangular floor, three naves and a high dome ceiling. There are free guided tours available in Spanish but note that these only cover part of the cathedral. The heart of the city has witnessed religious festivals and the atmosphere here is spectacular with a beautiful church full of life.
So colorful and beautiful inside. They are 3 churches like this near the square. All are beautiful. Free to go inside and maybe you can say a prayer if you want.

Both a great tourist attraction and a fully functioning Catholic church (mass is celebrated daily), this is the main cathedral in the city of Salta. Not old, for European standards, it was built in the mid 1800s, it still boasts a richly decorated interior full of altars and religious art (paintings, statues and a wonderfully fresco painted ceiling). The cloister next door is small and not breathtaking, but still worth to see when visiting the cathedral.
Niccolo' Bertoldi — Google review
Impressive example of decorative art. This building though is fairly recent. The atmosphere is cozy. The church has many security guards who are very helpful may you need assistance. It is a great place to pray or simply to admire the many different artifacts and sculptures.

(Translated by Google) He gave me a price, he gave me a discount if I paid it right away, I did it, well in advance and when the time came he told me that he was wrong, and he told me on the way to the ride, when I asked him if I canceled he was going to give me the money back. , told me that he would discount the distance from the trip we took while we were talking about this. Not serious, a bad experience, this happened with the guide Mauro Peralta, who from what I see was rated 5 stars. I do not recommend it.

Me pasó un precio, me hacia descuento si lo pagaba enseguida, lo hice, con mucha anticipación y cuando llego el momento me dijo que se equivoco, y me lo dijo en camino al paseo, cuando le pregunté si cancelaba me iba a devolver el dinero, me dijo que descontaría el trayecto del viaje que hicimos mientras íbamos hablando de esto. Poco serio, una mala experiencia, esto sucedió con el guía Mauro Peralta, que por lo que veo se calificó con 5 estrellas. No lo recomiendo.
