Trifter

I live in the Salta, province of Argentina placed to the north of the country and that borders internationally on Bolivia, Paraguay and Chile.

Without dread of seeming to be subjective I can say to them that it is, if the not most beautiful, one of the most beautiful of the whole republic, so much so it is not possible to name it without saying ” Salta her pretty “. It is a region basically agriculturalist – rancher, rich in cattle, tobacco, soybean, corn, petriliferous (oil) resources and metalíferos, vibrant in history (what it him fits for having been, in the pre-Hispanic period, a part of the Incas empire; in the colonial epoch, part of the virreynato of High Peru and having fulfilled a heroic role in in the fight for the Latin-American emancipation).

is not possible to stop mentioning, as special connotations, sensitive folklore, the warmth and hospitality of his people. Her possesses varied climates, diversity etnias and beautiful landscapes where convergency alternate the aridity, the mountains covered with snow , green valleys, all equally of particular beauty.

I want to present them across her histories and tourist attractions, and I want to begin the Presentation with the   Incas mummies children, findes in the volcano Llullaillaco, that in Quechuan , the meaning is a ” deceitful water “.

It is a volcano without activity that rises 6.739 meters on the level of the sea and is the place where there were found the bodies mummified of three children incaicos that were offered 500 years ago in sacrifice to this mountain, to which the Incas were attributing magic power, to him and given the low temperatures of the zone they remain intact, giving the idea of that are sleeping.

At present they are exhibited, one by one, every six months in Alta Montaña’s Museum of Salta, due to the strict care that demand your conservation, and they are visited by tourists who come to our city from all the places of the world.
