点评:What can one say about the beauty of Argentina. People tend to skip Northwest Argentina because of lack of time. But this region is so unique in panorama. While the Iguazu falls and Patagonia are a must-see for every tourist, Northwest Argentina should very much be on that list as well. Its easy to get to dizzying heights in a matter of a couple of hours and the landscape is exotic. The mountain colors change by the time of the day. Hornacal is about 15000 feet above sea level. It is popularly known as the 14 colored mountain. I have not visited the Rainbow Mountain in Peru, but this mountain is spectacular. The last stretch of the journey to get to the 14 colored mountain is a dirt road but the ride is not rough. We saw quite a few Llamas on the way up. The air is definitely thinner but if you are just spending a couple of hours there, there is nothing to worry. From the car parking there is a short trek down to a viewpoint from where once can get a more direct view of the mountain. We visited during the afternoon but its obviously best to visit before sunset and then stay till the sunset so you can experience the resplendent colors.
翻译:阿根廷的美景真是美不胜收。人们往往因为时间不够而忽略了阿根廷西北部。但这个地区的全景却如此独特。伊瓜苏瀑布和巴塔哥尼亚是每个游客的必游之地,而阿根廷西北部也绝对应该列入名单。只需几个小时就能轻松到达令人眩晕的高度,那里的景色充满异域风情。山峰的色彩随着一天中的时间而变化。霍纳卡尔海拔约15000英尺,俗称十四色山。我没有去过秘鲁的彩虹山,但这座山峰的壮丽景色令人叹为观止。通往十四色山的最后一段路是土路,但路况还不错。我们在上山的路上看到了不少骆驼。这里的空气确实比较稀薄,但如果你只是在那里待上几个小时,那就不用担心了。从停车场出发,沿着山下走一小段路就能到达一个观景点,在那里可以更直接地欣赏到这座山的景色。我们是在下午参观的,但显然最好是在日落之前参观,然后一直待到日落,这样你就可以感受到绚丽的色彩。
