Post 14: Tucuman

Tucuman was beautiful, hot and humid. These are all buildings around the main town square.


(Two catholic churches.)




Government building.




Tucuman's concept of Liberty in their main square. She was beautiful.




Here's the view from our hotel room onto the main square in Tucuman. A four star hotel for an equivalent of $80US per night.


The other of two Catholic churches on the town square. The interior was unbelievable but we didn't feel comfortable taking pics while they were doing the mass.








Tucuman is an economically vibrant, substantial city. The old center is especially overcrowded with chaotic traffic. Based on a couple of conversations with locals, the mountain valleys to the West of the city are very verdant and somewhat cooler than this subtropical city.
