| Uspallata Valley and Aconcagua |
|
|
Uspallata Valley connects Mendoza with Chile, toward Santiago. The colurs of the mountains are spectacular: going from red, to green, to yellow... depending on the minerals. It is a pity the pictures do not give the true colurs and proportions.
And then, Puente del Inca, an old thermal spot with sulfuric waters, destroyed by an landslade.
And finally, the Aconcagua National Park, with its 6962 meters high is the highest mountain in South America. |
