CLIMATE
Argentina’s pleasant climate turns it into a destination to be visited, enjoyed and explored all year round. Located in the Southern Hemisphere, it has four clearly defined seasons and each has its own charm and typical colors. Summer is the ideal time of the year to visit the beaches on the Atlantic Ocean, the lakes and mountains in the Patagonia, the vineyards in the harvest season or the glaciers. Winter is the perfect time to go North, which offers colorful and stunning landscapes, and to enjoy snow and mountain sports in the Andes region. Spring and fall invite travelers to visit Buenos Aires, which offers its jacaranda, linden and other flowering trees, or to travel to must-see destinations such as the Iguazú Falls, the Esteros del Iberá or the mountains in the center region of our country.

GEOGRAPHY
Plains, forests, woods, hills, deserts and mountains. Argentina is a territory that offers diversity and contrasts, and surprises visitors with its varied geography. A considerable part of our territory is made up of a very fertile plain land, the famous Argentine Pampa. To the West, the Andes cross the country from North to South and have its peak, the Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the whole continent, which reaches 6,960.8 meters, in the province of Mendoza, In the center of the country, there are hills and, in the East, a vast region by the Atlantic Ocean (Litoral). Considered one of the countries that offers the greatest diversity worldwide, many of its natural sites are protected as natural reserves and national parks and have even been recognized as World Heritage Sites by the UNESCO.

Argentina is bordered by Bolivia, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Chile.
