Argentina derives its name from the Spanish word for silver, which brought the early Europeans to this land, but it is a country of still-untapped wealth. The stark, spectacular beauty of the Patagonia and the Tierra del Fuego wildernesses is contrasted with the cosmopolitan capital city of Buenos Aires. Explore the cultural and economic wealth of the pampas, which funded the building of Buenos Aires. Argentina’s diverse peoples and terrains are revealed with beautiful images and sounds.
