Ushuaia, Argentina

Ushuaia is considered the most southern city of the world. It was founded on October 4, 1884 by August Lasserre. It is located on the bay of the same name, at the foot of the mountainous cord Martial.

The region has several places for visits and excursions; it is at the same time the place where the main tour circuits depart that go over the province.

The climate in Ushuaia is not so severe as it is believed, since the mountains and the sea soften it. The climate is changeable and it can change from one day to another or even during a single day.

For its location close to the southern pole, in summer there are approximately eighteen light hours, while in winter only seven or eight hours.

The city has a good hotel and gastronomic infrastructure, where one can taste the traditional fueguina spider crab, the black hake, the kinglet, the sea bream, exquisite shellfish, as well as the Patagonian stick lamb cook.

The other important city of the island is Rio Grande, considered the economic capital of the province, because it is the center of communications and a place of convergence of its production.
