Northern Argentina and Pampas


Argentina is a large country with landscape as extreme and diverse as one can imagine.
Gauchos herd cattle in a landscape that has jumped out of the "Wild West".

The centre of Argentina is dominated by the flat Pampas where the Alfalfa farms seems to go on forever.
Little Lihue Cahel shows what the Pampas would have looked like before it went under the plough.
Pensinsula Valdez on the Atlantic Coast is a haven for sealife along its rocky shores.
Quilmes is the site of a "last stand" by the indigenous population in order to avoid annihilation.
Finally Gaimen portrays a touch of Wales in Latin America - it was chosen by Welsh pilgrims who settled here to avoid persecution in their home country.
