1. Buenos Aires. The city of Buenos Aires is a cosmopolitan city that houses more than 3 million people daily, including visitors and those who live in the city. Buenos Aires has little to envy capitals like Paris, London or Madrid. It is diverse, imposing, bustling and you can find everything the tourist is looking for and more.

 

2. Iguazu Falls. They are the largest waterfalls in the world. The IguazĂș Falls are located on the border between Brazil and Argentina. In Argentina they are in the north of the province of Misiones. On the Argentine side, they are protected by the IguazĂș National Park, which has 67,000 hectares. The falls are impressive and are a sample of the immense work of nature.


3. Perito Moreno Glacier. This glacier shows an impressive phenomenon once a year: its great mass of ice advances continuously, causing the detachment of gigantic blocks of ice on its front 5 km wide. This detachment generates a roar similar to that of thunder.



4. Salta. The province of Salta in the north of the country borders Bolivia. The city is colonial and has a great historical legacy. In Salta is the town of Cafayate that is very visited by tourists. You can see the hill of the seven colors and there are isolated places for rural tourism.



5. The vineyards of Mendoza. Mendoza is a province that borders the Andes. Mendoza vineyards produce some of the best wines in the world. Numerous Italian and French winemakers work in these vineyards in order to practice and learn about all types of Mendoza grapes. In Mendoza, as in Italian Tuscany, there are various wine and food tours that tourists can do.



 

6. Bariloche. Nestled in the middle of Patagonia, the city of Bariloche has a German style due to German immigration after the 2nd. World War.
