Argentina Apartment Rental
Top Things To See
o Step into the Capital Federal District - one of the world's largest metropolitan areas - which has, at its heart, Buenos Aires: gawp at the gigantic Catedral Metropolitana (Metropolitan Cathedral), which contains the remains of San Martín, Argentina's liberator; delight in the atmosphere of San Telmo, with its many cafes, antique shops, tango night spots and a Sunday flea market on Plaza Dorrego; and have a walk through the chic and upper-class Recoleta borough, famous for its Cementerio de la Recoleta (where many members of Argentina's elite are buried) and the renowned Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (Museum of Fine Arts), which has works by Renoir, Rodin, Monet, Van Gogh and numerous Argentine artists.
o See the top spots of The Pampas and visit the scenic peaks of Sierra de la Ventana, located within the Ernesto Tornquist Provincial Park; note the traces of colonial past in Santa Fe; glimpse the pink granite rock formations (reaching up to 600m/1968ft) of Lihue Calel National Park, an area consisting mostly of desert, located some 226km (142 miles) southwest of the city of Santa Rosa.
o Go see that Resistencia is not called the 'city of sculptures' for nothing: there are over 200 of them in this capital of the El Chaco Province; and Campo del Cielo is a nearby area famous for its meteorite fragments dating back some 6000 years.
o Be dazzled by the sheer power of Iguazú Falls (parts of which are located in neighbouring Brazil), within the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Iguazú National Park, whose subtropical rainforest provides a habitat for over 2000 identified plant species and 400 bird species: the Iguazú Falls are a majestic phenomenon that can be viewed from many channels, the most impressive of which is Garganta del Diablo (Devil's Throat), which can be approached via a system of catwalks. At their highest point, the falls have a vertical drop more than one and a half times the full length of Niagara Falls. Visitors can catch a good view of the falls from a tower near the visitor centre, which also organises free trips to the Isla San Martín, another good lookout point for an extensive and crowd-free view.
o Visit one of Argentina's oldest cities, Corrientes, and see the Santísima Cruz de los Milagros, among Corrientes' oldest churches, and the Convento de San Francisco: Corrientes is also the land of the chamamé, a characteristic type of rhythmic music derived from the polka.
o Gaze at the Andes mountain ranges whilst sipping a glass of wine in the Mendoza Province: near the border with Chile lies the famous Mount Aconcagua (6995m/22,944ft), the highest mountain in the Western hemisphere, located within the Aconcagua National Park, and Uspallata, located in a serene valley surrounded by mountains; the striking Puente del Inca is a natural stone bridge over the River Mendoza; and Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer) is a famous monument in the high Andes, nearly 4000m (13,120ft) above sea level, offering magnificent views.
