Whether your idea of fun is to hurl yourself down a ski slope,
immerse yourself in history, explore beautiful natural surroundings
or simply sit back with a glass of world-class wine, you won’t
be disappointed by Mendoza. Situated at the foot of the Andes, near
the Chilean border, this is one city whose appeal seems limitless:
famous ski resorts, stunning rivers and valleys, rich vineyards
and centuries of history are just for starters. Victim of a devastating
earthquake in 1861, the city was skillfully reconstructed with low-level
buildings, irrigation canals, wide avenues flanked by trees and
what today are bustling central squares of locals going about their
daily business or stopping for coffee in one of many street-side
cafés. You could say this is Argentine life at its best.
