    There is a small theatre but very beautiful. There are some parks. The restaurants and cinemas aren't expensive and the bars are cheap, too. Well.. for now!
    There is a great an antique market . It has something for everyone. It is kind of expensive.

  5. I was born in Salta's city. It is the city that I love. It is a fascinating place. It isn't because I was born there. It's because I toured its outstanding valleys and hill. It is at north of the country. It is like a horseshoe. I like for its four climates. Salta has got some traditions that maintain 400 ago like the patron Saints Salta's city whose procession it is made in september. It's a big large party of faith. There are believer and no believer. It is worthy to see. It don't have the pollution of Bs. As. There two big dikes, one more than other. It is the from Campo Alegre and other it is Cabra Corral. It is a huge artificial lake. There is a hotel for tourists. There is a huge monument to Martin Miguel of Guemes, behind it is the San Bernardo Hill. In top of the hill there is a cableway until the San Martin Park. There aren't ducks in winter that will come in sprint. It is kind of noisy in the centre city and very peaceful in surroundings. It is too called Salta la linda. It was wrote by Juan Alberto
