Argentina
Why ArgentinaThe total surface area of Argentina is 1,068,303 sq-mi. It can roughly be divided into four parts: the fertile plains of the Pampas in the center of the country, the fat to rolling, oil-rich plateau of Patagonia in the southern half down to Tierra del Fuego; the subtropical fats of the Gran chaco in the north, and the rugged Andes mountain range along the western border with Chile. Among unequaled mountainous landscapes, is Bariloche, whose architecture preserves the traditional alpine-village style and boasts quality tourist infrastructure. The estuaries and lagoons of Ibera make up a rich ecosystem with a tremendous diversity of fora and fauna. Surrounded by the Martial Mounts Range and the Beagle Channel, Ushuaia, capital of the Tierra de Fuego province, is the southernmost city in the world. Buenos AiresArgentina’s capital, Buenos Aires, is energetic and seductive. The “Porteños,” as local residents are referred to, have a rich cultural identity. City of contrasts, the neighborhoods are small and each with individual characteristics; the historic center is formed by Monserrat and San Telmo. Gallery |
