ARGENTINA

Argentinians are known for their infectious passion, which permeates every aspect of life in the country. From the spirited rhythms of tango to the fervor surrounding football matches, their enthusiasm is palpable. You’ll find that conversations often burst with emotion, when discussing politics, football or other mundane topics.

Argentina is a land of contrasts. In the early 20th century, the country symbolized prosperity, leading to the saying “¡Il est riche comme un Argentin!” (“Rich like an Argentine”). Today, you can still see echoes of this affluence in Buenos Aires, often called the “Paris of South America,” with its stunning European-style architecture, including landmarks like the iconic Teatro Colón and the majestic Palacio Barolo.

Venture beyond Buenos Aires to discover Argentina’s breathtaking natural wonders! From the towering glaciers of Patagonia’s Perito Moreno to the thunderous Iguazú Falls on the border with Brazil, adventure awaits at every turn. Don’t miss the dramatic landscapes of the Andean wine region in Mendoza or the charming colonial streets of Salta in the northwest.
