What song will tourists who decide to visit excursions in Argentina sing in chorus? Of course, Isaac Dunaevsky's “Song of the Merry Wind” to the words of Vasily Lebedev-Kumach. For the first time this hit sounded in the cult Soviet film based on the novel by Jules Verne "Children of Captain Grant".
And the most impressive for the young reader was the journey of the heroes of the book through Patagonia, which occupies the vast territories of distant and mysterious Argentina. Natural monuments and beautiful places are what attracts visitors from the other hemisphere in the first place.
Green excursions in Argentina
Tourists on the way here can not be stopped by anything, neither long hours of tedious flights, transfers, nor quite an impressive amount that will have to be spent on the trip, nor the vagaries of the weather, such as sweltering heat or showers. The main tourist attractions are the following:
- Perito Moreno - a glacier, surprising with pale blue shades;
- Tierra del Fuego and Ushuaia - the southernmost capital on the globe;
- Andes, majestic and endless.
Argentine cities, Cordoba, Salta and, of course, the main city of the country, Buenos Aires, are no less beautiful. It is impossible to miss the excursion - architectural masterpieces, monuments of local history, culture exotic for a European and the sounds of the famous Argentine tango, not just music, but actually a lifestyle.
Tour constructor in the capital
These sightseeing tours have become very popular lately in Buenos Aires. A professional guide is ready to show guests the main attractions of the capital, but suggests including in the route those objects that tourists would like to see. The duration of the route is about 6 hours, the cost is in the range of $ 100-120.
In the list of the main attractions of the capital of Argentina, acquaintance with the widest street in Latin America, the presidential palace, reminiscent of a beautiful pink and white marshmallow, a majestic cathedral.
A journey through the former colonial region of Buenos Aires with its many underground tunnels will be exotic. And one more unusual excursion offer awaits guests in the main Argentine city - a walk along Recoleta, the "city of angels", the most beautiful and famous cemetery in the world.
Travel to the world of art
The capital has prepared for its guests one more unusual excursion - in the La Boca area. Locals believe that this is an artificially created paradise for tourists, it cannot convey the true atmosphere of the old Argentine city. But this does not bother travelers, because their goal is to see as much as possible. In the La Boca area, the story of Argentina and the capital travels through the art world. There are many galleries, museums, beautiful landscapes, cafes and restaurants.
One of the galleries occupies an entire street - "Caminito", where local artists present and sell their masterpieces. The company of the brush masters is made up of musicians, singers, dancers (in the style of tango). Many souvenir shops allow you to stock up on gifts for family and friends.
Another feature of the La Boca area is the colorful "positive" houses that create a festive atmosphere. This was not always the case, the popular small town did not appear from a good life. Historians claim that the origins of the Argentine capital are located here, the first colony appeared on these lands in 1536. Then the area became industrial, mostly poor immigrants from different parts of the world settled.
It was they who created multi-colored houses, where, for example, the roof is blue, the walls are yellow, and the doors are red. Not because they were striving for beauty and aesthetics, they bought something for which there was enough money, over time someone came up with a brilliant idea: to turn this poor quarter into the main tourist feature of the capital. The idea was successfully implemented.
Argentine wonder of the world
Such a beautiful and honorable designation was awarded to Iguazu, the most famous National Park in the country, which is located near the city of Puerto Iguazu. The main attraction is the waterfall with the same name as the reserve; tourists are amazed not only by the waterfall, but also by the exotic nature of the area. Interestingly, it is located on the border of three states - Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil.
The forests in the park grow in several levels, the highest is "canopy" (trees), then several steps of lower trees, the lower level is shrubs and herbs that serve as the basis for the most popular Argentine tea - mate. The walk in the park is combined, includes a pedestrian part, a trip along a narrow-gauge railway directly to the waterfalls, where a grandiose spectacle awaits guests. The third part of the excursion takes place by boat along a narrow picturesque canyon surrounded by rocks covered with dense vegetation.
