We were on Route No. 9 A splendid sunshine and the cloudless sky that day announced that it was ideal for the trip. Small towns are happening. Each had a different beauty, something that made him different from others. So we making the tour of Volcano, Tumbaya. Maimará and Humahuaca. All of them preparing for the start of the carnival festivities, which have a different color in northern Argentina. In Humahuaca visited the Monument to the Indian, striking in their size dimensions and how it was built. On the main structure of stone, there are groups of sculptural figures made entirely of metal, and at the top central figure of an Indian ex-sized

Exactly at noon opens a window where is located the Town Hall clock and patron saint, San Francisco Solano, with its articulated image, gives the blessing. Then we went to the Chapel on the front of the building before, where every year takes place the adoration of the Child Jesus on Christmas Day. His altar is gold, and is said to be covered with small sheets of gold. The majority of Humahuaca streets are narrow, covered with paving stones and adobe house.

Aun debíamos visitar Purmamarca, pues de la ruta principal había que desviarse algunos kilómetros. A medida que nos acercábamos al pueblo el paisaje de los cerros se iba tornando más rojo por la tonalidad de la tierra.Había tanta paz, la tranquilidad se respiraba. Las calles de tierra estaban regadas y los artesanos lugareños exponían variedades de productos regionales, destacándose mantas y tejidos autóctonos con guardas coloridas. La iglesia estaba en penumbras, invitando al recogimiento, mientras en el altar titilaba la luz del sagrario. Interna y externamente las paredes de la capilla estaban covered with stucco and blah

Walls, stone walls, meeting places of the community had been maintained through the years. The height of the valleys that surround it, the landscape around El Pucara, merely framing a monumental milestone in the history of the natives of that land.
