Looking at a traditionnal dance performance

After an exhausting bike trip, we has a sort of consolation : a dance festival on a square in a southern part of Mendoza. We had chacarera (argentine folk dance) and a dance representation of the meeting of colonials and indians...Wonderful!
Enjoy Plaza Independencia - the biggest in MZ
by Trekki
Mendoza has, as all latin american cities / towns, a main plaza.
Plaza Independencia is huge (compared to others), and it is the place to go during day and night. Huge trees are planted there, a big fountain, and a lot of places to rest.
Although it is in the middle of the city, you never have this feeling of being surrounded by noise.
A perfect place to relax.
During the day (from 10 a.m.) until minimum 10 p.m. a mercado de artesanias is there, a lot of small stands, selling all and everything.
The quality of the things is excellent, e.g. all the leather clothing, belts, purses etc.
During the night, a lot of other artists are there, playing music, performing, etc.
We saw for example a group of schoolkids, performing capueira - excellent !!!

Puente del Inca
by Gaspar&Floppy
Puente del Inca is a natura bridge made after thousands of years of water erosion. A river of mineral water runs through it
The legend says that once upon a time an Inca prince was terribly ill, his father was informed of a river whose water could heal his son. He took his son together with his servants to this river but they need it to cross it in order to reach a place where they could get water and there was no bridge. The prince's father felt really sad because his son would die for sure and he prayed to Inti, the god of the sun who felt really sorry for him and his son and made a bridge for them to cross.
