The Inca's Bridge (El Puente del Inca) in Mendoza ,Argentina



The so called Puente del Inca is a natural bridge over the Vacas River in the province of  Mendoza, Argentina. It is situated at 2,740 m (8,990 ft) above sea level.












In the pictures you can see an abandoned railway station which has been turned into a museum. The place is worth a visit  and even Charles Darwin thought so, when he went there in 1835.



In order to get there you can either rent a car or book an excursion, you will find lots of Argentinian tourists and some foreigners .


There is a church nearby.Argentina is mainly a Catholic country.


Even in September when the winter has already finished in the Southern Hemisphere, the weather is quite cold.
