Overview
Take a trip to Salta on your Argentina vacation.
Salta is the seventh-largest city in Argentina and the centre of the nation’s tourism industry in the northwest. Within the city, travellers can tour the Spanish colonial buildings, including the neoclassical Cathedral of Salta and the Cabilda (town hall), or see the famous Inca mummies of the High Mountain Archaeological Museum (MAAM). Ride the cable car near Plaza del Lago for the best views of the city centre.
Outside the city, the Salta landscape gives way to dramatic rocks and colourful hills, including the startling seven-coloured valley of Quebrada de Humahuaca, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Travellers can also connect to the nearby Train to the Clouds, one of the highest train rides in the world, or tour the vineyards of Cafayate, known for the white wine Torrontes.
