Juyuy is next to Salta and offers a totally different perspective of the North of Argentina. While Cordoba is a much bigger city and more industrial than Salta, Juyuy is totally off the beaten track remoteness, Although these 3 destinations are close by, they have their different and individual charms, making the North west of Argentina an excellent part of the country to visit.
