Hello and greetings from the city of Salta, we are back with

another video from Northern Argentina and this one's a busy

Future simple

one in this episode. we'll be showing you some of the

colonial architecture that has earned the city. The nickname

of Salta, the beautiful we'll try some delicious northern

Argentine food, including my personal favorite lentil stew.

We'll learn about Argentina's colonial and revolutionary

history at the cabin. We'll visit beautiful plazas lined

with palm trees and step inside cathedrals that are works of

art. We'll admire the. From a top San Bernardo and we'll also

pick up a rental car because we need some wheels if we're going

Well, good morning, Good morning guys and welcome to

Salta Salta. The beautiful we have arrived here

in the city today is our first full day here so the plan is to

just explore the downtown core. We have a lot of colonial

buildings, Churches Basilica museums. It's all colonial. You

know these dates back to the uh to the days of the Spanish uh

colonizers you know and the architecture is beautiful. So

yeah. We're gonna go visit a couple of museums. That's the

plan today to visit the core of the city. so let's go

discovering a little bit. Okay do it. First up, we visited the

cab, which is a colonial building that today houses the

History Museum of the North. It's located on the south end

of the main square and it's easy to spot with its white

arches. This is a good place to learn about Argentina's

This is not a bathtub given the fact that we drink a lot of

wine. We wanted to show you this and explain a little bit

to you how the wine was made in the old days. This is a leather

uh kind of uh tub okay with a wooden frame. The grapes were

put into here and someone barefoot would come in and

start crushing the grapes with the with the feet. That's why

it's called vino potato potato in in slanging in Spanish is is

No time for a little history lesson for my dad Daniel here

we are at the who was the main building uh in the day, you

know like the day of the uh colony and this area here in

south a little bit of history when Argentina declare

independence and they try to break uh ties with Spain. This

is the places where they try to do it. Spain was uh very strong

in this area where that was called the. To Peru, which is

today's Bolivia, so the first attempts to beat the Spanish

armies were made through northern Argentina going into

Alto, Peru or Bolivia. But the strength of the Spanish in this

area was so strong that it was almost impossible. They were

advancing and fighting and capturing maybe one small

location and then sometime after the Spanish were uh

contrary attack and they lose it and it was pushing and back

and pushing and back and fighting and dying, you know so

when this route to. The impossible that's when San

Martin, the great Liberator decided to go across the Andy's

with his army and first uh liberate Chile and then by sea,

they went all the way on to uh liberate the group. At one

point, the Spaniards were pushing south and they were so

strong in the province of the next province north of here

that it was decided it was called the big uh exodus so

they. To leave nothing behind for the Spaniards and was

totally erased like anything that could be carried away was

carried away and the race was burned burned to you know,

chart the land you know. This country uh in this area of the

world, we don't have Hollywood here so the history is not very

well known to the world. Maybe but if you really like uh this

type of uh history about liberation and independence and

you can find books and read about what happened in this

area it uh you'll be surprised you know sometimes I think I'm

standing here in the cabin in and I wonder you know how many

people in those days. Must be in here in the same talking to

the to the people and encourage in them to keep on filing and

keep on the struggle and ah it's a puri history here you

know so that's the part that I like when i come to displace as

you know to you know kind of in time take casteback in time and

unposition yourself in those days but in modern times like

hearing you know what must have happen from these balcony you

one you like the best the bigger the better.
