Argentina’s Capital, Buenos Aires, is one of the largest
cities in the world. Gateway to the country, with all its cosmopolitan
charm. In its extension from Jujuy to Tierra del Fuego, the
mountain chain displays the marvellous contrasts of its landscapes:
from the high plateau in the Northwest, to the region of lakes,
forests and glaciers in Patagonia’s Andes. Mesopotamia,
in the province of Misiones, has cracks that result in spectacular
phenomena like Iguazú Waterfalls. In the centre of Argentina,
the Pampa region is the most extensive plain. This landscape
is interrupted to the south by the small Tandil and La Ventana
sierras and to the west, by Córdoba’s sierras.
Towards the South, from the Andes to the sea, there are Patagonia
plateaus, lashed by the winds for a great part of the year.
The Atlantic coastal region, bordered by high cliffs, draws
winding shapes, like Valdés Península, with its
impressive sea animal colonies.
