Argentina
Argentina, the second largest country in South America, and is the eighth largest in the world by land area. The climate is one of the most diverse in the world which varies from sub-tropical temperatures in the Patagonian desert to sub-zero temperatures along Cape Horn - one of the world’s most southerly cities, Ushuaia, and the Americas' highest peak, Aconcagua in the Andes to the West of the country.
Despite earning headline fame for its economic and political upheavals, Argentina is not to be missed. It's one of South America's most charismatic and passionate countries, and for many visitors the devaluation of the Argentine peso just means even more for your money. Sport plays a huge role in Argentinean society, and those who visit this energetic land will soon start to embrace this sport mad culture.
