After passing many rivers that crossed the soooo stoney road, we arrived at Iruya, this beautiful village... (ufff with the wires, yes)..
A place where the time stopped, even not knowing for how much more...


along that road we found many interesting guys.. =).. here a beautiful fox, who stopped for a moment to watch us




and two more, so typical at this side of the world: the mighty condor, who was flying over the village and a beautiful lama....

we continue the following day exploring Humahuaca gorge.. coloured hills, cultivated fields...
the place where nature and man melt in harmony and beauty..

Where history appears at every step, as in this image, a place where one of Argentina's Independence heroes, watched to see, at far distance, how the enemy avanced at beginning of XVII century...



The melt of men and nature.. and the dream of new generations, to keep the soul of these essential feelings...

We left Salta and drove to a place that was designed by UNESCO as Humanity Heritage, Humahuaca Gorge..
One of the villages in it, is Tilcara..

There, we went to capture the big fortress, called Pucara, used by aborigines to defend from the invaders...

Stones, cactus.. reconstructed houses and ceremonial places, all surrounded by an impressive view of the valleys ..
It was a so windy day, cold.. but a little cutie came to warm our souls...
