BONUS TIP:

In Jardín, you can explore Cerro Tusa, which is the largest natural pyramid in the world. It offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Alternatively, if you are looking for a beautiful viewpoint, you can visit Mirador El Cristo.

Also I advise you to go and visit: Reserva Natural Jardin de Rocas. Some stunning birds that are out of everbodies geography books.

A must visit when in Jardín.
