 Mar Del Plata, a coastal fishing port |
It is hard to escape the lure of Buenos Aires, one of the most stylish and fashionable cities in the world (or at least until the sad economic downturn of 2002-03). The real challenge for visitors is to venture into those parts of the country which accommodate the other two thirds of the 30 million population. There is no corner so remote that it cannot be reached, from jungle wilds to Andean precipices to sub-Arctic national parks.
