On Sundays, Salta has an amazing food, arts, and craft fair which takes over most of the city. I was looking at necklaces and one had an interesting symbol on it. I was told it was an Inca symbol representing material and spiritual protection while traveling. After my not so great bus journeys, I thought it might be wise to wear it and to pray to the Inca gods.
I went to the most amazing museum called MaaM. It’s a museum about 3 children who were discovered on top of a volcano (at 6200m) in perfect conditions in 1999. They had been sacrificed to the Inca Gods over 500 years ago. They are preserved in glacier like conditions and they are said to be the best-preserved mummies to date.
