Corrientes City

Corrientes is a town with a lot of potential. It is blessed by beautiful colonial buildings. Unfortunately the Province is in serious poverty largely due to the recent rule of a corrupt family called the Romero-Feris who appear to have pinched all the cash. The Province has only just washed its hands of the last family member and appears to be on the up. However the poverty shows and the place is a wierd combination of colonial and seventies architecture.
We stayed in a very nice but seventies hotel with seventies staff it was like being in a discoloured seventies postcard. Unfortunately I don´t have any pictures that illustrate this.
