Using HTTP basic authentication in nginx to protect wordpress

So, i wanted to protect /wp-admin/ and wp-login.php of my wordpress installations usng HTTP basic authentication in Nginx.
After feeling around for quite some time, I came with code that I have added to nginx.ssl.conf_ of my websites.

location = /wp-login.php {
   auth_basic            "Restricted Area: WordPress";
   auth_basic_user_file  bloup;
   include fastcgi_params;
try_files  $uri @fallback;
}

location  /wp-admin/ {
   auth_basic            "Restricted Area: WordPress";
   auth_basic_user_file  bloup;
   include fastcgi_params;
try_files  $uri @fallback;
}

Is it the right way to do it? Did i miss something?
