San La Muerte
The Barrios family guards the most sacred sanctuary to San La Muerte and each year they celebrate its anniversary. In Corrientes province, thousands of faithfuls travel every August to pay tribute and thank the miracles to this profane popular saint who has grown in recent years along the economic crisis that Argentina is going through.
