The
Rough Guide to Argentina
by Rough Guides, Danny Aeberhard, Lucy Phillips, Andrew Benson
Argentina is a vast country. It measures 5000km by 1500km and, even
without the titanic wedge of Antarctica that the authorities are wont to
include in the national territory, it ranks as the world's eighth largest
state, immediately behind India. Thanks to its longitudinal position, standing
between the Tropic of Cancer and the most southerly reaches of the planet's
landmass, the country encompasses a staggering diversity of climates and
landscapes. The mainland points down like a massive stalactite on the map,
from the hot and humid jungles of its northeast and the bone-dry highland
steppes of its northwest down through windswept Patagonia to the end-of-the-world
archipelago of Tierra del Fuego, a territory that is shared with Chile.
