ABOUT CORDOBA
It is the colonial capital city of Argentina on the edge of the Sierra
Chica mountain. It has the oldest and one of the most prestigious
universities of the country, founded by the Jesuits in 1622, and the
center of the city is rich in Spanish colonial architecture from the 16th
century. Its name comes from the surrounding province, which embraces an
unusually scenic section of the Andes, the Sierras de Cordoba. Located in
the geographical centre of Argentina, it offers opportunities for
traditional and adventure tourism as the hills and valleys are filled with
springs, crystal clear rivers, artificial lakes, the huge salted lake of
Mar Chiquita (heaven of ornithologists), and rupestrian (cave) paintings
in Cerro Colorado. The Punilla Valley and Cuchi Corral have exceptional
natural atmosphere for aerial activities, such as parachuting and
ballooning, and on San Roque Lake windsurfing, yachting and nautical
sports. The Calamuchita Valley has lakes and clear rivers surrounded by
mountains, an ideal area for swimming, mountain climbing and trekking,
cycling, horse riding and  fishing. In Traslasierra Valley, across the
Sierras Grandes, there is Pampa de Achala. On the peak resides the
Quebrada de los Condoritos National Park, one of the only places in the
world where you may see the highly endangered condor, largest bird on
earth, in its natural habitat.
