About Tilcara
Tilcara is a town in Jujuy province in northern Argentina. It lies in the dramatic Quebrada de Humahuaca mountain valley. Just outside town are the partially rebuilt remains of the Pucará de Tilcara, a pre-Hispanic hilltop fortification. Nearby are steep gorges like the Devil's Throat. In town, the Dr. Eduardo Casanova Archaeological Museum has Inca relics. The José A. Terry Museum displays paintings of local life.
