Córdoba
A mountainous province in central Argentina combining Jesuit heritage, mountain resort towns and university-city culture.
Córdoba lies in central Argentina, with the long Sierras de Córdoba in the west and the Pampas plains in the east. The capital, Córdoba, is a historic university city, and its Jesuit Block together with the surrounding Jesuit estancias is a World Cultural Heritage Site. The mountains hold Villa Carlos Paz, the German-style town of Villa General Belgrano and Quebrada del Condorito National Park, making them a popular domestic vacation area. It is a year-round destination: summers offer cool mountain escapes, while spring and autumn suit hiking. The gateway is Córdoba International Airport.
