Churches-Tilcara and Salta

Before leaving Jujuy we went to Tilcara, another pueblo to the north, and you can see here it has a real Mexican kind of feel, with the adobe and earth tones. Nic in front of the church (I actually thought that was me when I put up this picture...oops!)
Totally different, this is a church in Salta. Salta was obviously a very rich city at one point. I think it looks like a birthday cake on the outside, with the pastel pinks and blues.
Interior of the church-not what I expected at all...it's beautiful!
