Within walking distance of the Square is Saint Francis Church and the city's three pedestrian streets: Alberdi, Florida and Caseros. The three blocks in Baclare Street to the train station are now the centre of night life in Salta, with restaurants, pubs and cafés on both sidewalks and concerts every night. Traditonal folk clubs peñas folklóricas are an important part of local culture
San Bernado and Mount 20 February peaks overlook the town. You can take a cable car trip up over the valley for stunning ariel views.
