These two provinces cover the Central and Northern Andes in Argentina and share a boarder with Chile to the West. Contained within these two provinces are the Moon Valley and Talampaya, places of unparalleled beauty listed as Natural Heritage Sites by UNESCO. The Moon Valley takes one back to the origins of life on the planet. Here, nature and the passage of time have carved the stone into uncommon shapes. The Talampaya canyon covers tens of kilometers and has an average height of 160 m. In addition to the striking shapes eroded onto the canyon walls, the place is a true deposit of rupestrian art. The national parks and protected areas make these provinces a tourist destination of unequaled variety. The area is an important site for interested persons and experts of geology and paleontology.
