JigsawArgentina Puzzles
Argentina stretches from the subtropical north down to Tierra del Fuego at the tip of South America, with the Andes along its western side. Our Argentina puzzles show Buenos Aires, the coloured mountains of the north-west, Aconcagua, the lakes of Bariloche, the glaciers and peaks of Patagonia, the whales of Península Valdés and the far south around Ushuaia.

About Argentina
In Buenos Aires, the brightly painted houses of Caminito in the La Boca neighbourhood recall the immigrants who settled by the port and the birth of the tango. The pink Casa Rosada, the presidential palace, stands on the historic Plaza de Mayo.
In Patagonia, the Perito Moreno Glacier ends in a wall of ice about 70 metres high, from which huge blocks crash into the lake, and the granite spires of Mount Fitz Roy glow red at sunrise. Ushuaia, one of the southernmost cities in the world, looks out on the Beagle Channel, where sea lions rest on rocks near the Les Eclaireurs lighthouse.
In the north-west, the striped slopes of the Hornocal and the Hill of Seven Colours above Purmamarca glow red, purple and green in the Quebrada de Humahuaca. Near Mendoza, Aconcagua rises to 6,961 metres, the highest mountain outside Asia, and on the Atlantic coast southern right whales come to Península Valdés each winter to raise their calves.
