The town of Cachi, a name which means “salt”, was mistakenly called so when nearby Nevado Hill was originally mistaken for a salt mine. In this small town, which is located in the northern Salta region of Argentina, visitors can enjoy comfortable weather while they explore the main attractions of the area, which include Cachi Church and the Cachi Archeological Museum, where discoveries from the local region are on display. Also nearby is the Valle Encantado, which is home to some impressive rock formations that have been sculpted over the years by erosion, and Los Cardones National Park, a huge desert area that contains many animal and plant species.
