The city
Humahuaca brings together the cathedral and the Cabildo in a center of narrow streets. The staircase leads to the Monumento a los Héroes de la Independencia. The Mirador de la Serranía de Hornocal is outside the town, via an uphill road, and requires its own time for the trip and the higher altitude.
