Route Wine (Mendoza)<\/h1>\n

Although there are also wine routes in Salta, Tucum\u00e1n, La Rioja, Neuqu\u00e9n and San Juan, among other provinces, this oenological route reaches its maximum expression in Mendoza, one of the most important producing regions of the world, with its capital as part of the Select group “Great wine capitals”.
\nWith more than 100 wineries in its four wine regions -Centro, Este, Valle de Uco and Sur-, Mendoza offers everything for the wine lover: old cellars transformed into a museum – like La Rural -, others with super modern structures and incredible views To the mountain -Septima, O. Fournier or Vistandes, among others-, luxury accommodations among the vineyards, spas with specialized treatments -Caves Wine Lodge, Entre Cielos, Park Hyatt, etc.-, golf courses among the vineyards -Tupungato Winelands, in the Uco Valley, or Algod\u00f3n Real Estate in San Rafael – and even complete art galleries, such as the Killka space in the Salentein winery.<\/p>\n

From wines such as Terrazas de los Andes to proposals that include tours of olive oil and lunches in steps married with different strains, Mendoza<\/a> has developed like no other wine tourism. You can ride horses, ride the vineyards by bicycle, in old cars or in carriages, and even fly them in a hot air balloon.<\/p>\n

Great landscapes and a spectacular fauna demonstration, in a route that follows the course of the National Route 3 from Camarones, in the south of Chubut, to R\u00edo Gallegos, in the southeast of Santa Cruz, and that could well be called “The route of the Sea “, because almost the whole circuit is looking at the ocean.

San Antonio de Areco, San Andr\u00e9s de Giles, San Pedro, Baradero, Navarro, Azul, Ca\u00f1uelas… Son muchos los sitios de la Provincia de Buenos Aires en los que antiguas pulper\u00edas resisten el paso del tiempo y cuentan historias que vale la pena conocer, de cuando eran el centro del comercio de los pueblos \u2013todo lo que se necesitaba estaba all\u00ed: comida, bebidas, velas, carb\u00f3n, remedios\u2013 y el centro de la vida social, donde todos se encontraban a ponerse al tanto de las novedades o a jugar al truco con un verm\u00fa.
\nAlgunos ejemplos: el Almac\u00e9n de Mogiardini en Paraje Barrientos, cerca de la laguna de Lobos, no lejos de La Protegida, en Navarro, donde tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1n La Media Luna y El Recreo. Pero hay muchas: San Gervasio, en Azul; Los Principios, Bessonart o San Mart\u00edn, en San Antonio de Areco, Beladrich en San Pedro, El Torito en Baradero, y las \u201cs\u00faper famosas\u201d, como La Blanqueada, en San Antonio de Areco, que aparece en \u201cDon Segundo Sombra\u201d y fue declarada Monumento Hist\u00f3rico y convertida en museo.

Routes of the Estancias Jesu\u00edticas (C\u00f3rdoba)<\/h1>\n

Un circuito por el centro de la capital y cinco establecimientos rurales conforman el recorrido por el legado que dej\u00f3 la orden religiosa de la Compa\u00f1\u00eda de Jes\u00fas y por leyendas y vestigios de una buena parte de la historia del siglo XVII (los jesuitas llegaron a C\u00f3rdoba en 1599 y fueron expulsados en 1767).
\nEl \u201cCamino de las Estancias Jesu\u00edticas\u201d es un itinerario tur\u00edstico cultural que suele iniciarse en la Manzana Jesu\u00edtica de C\u00f3rdoba, un conjunto de edificios que incluye, entre otros, la Iglesia de la Compa\u00f1\u00eda, el antiguo Rectorado de la Universidad Nacional de C\u00f3rdoba, la Biblioteca Mayor y el Colegio Nacional de Monserrat.
\nEn Colonia Caroya, a 46 km de la capital, est\u00e1 la Estancia de Caroya, primer establecimiento rural organizado por la orden, en 1616, que conserva su estructura colonial. El segundo n\u00facleo productivo del sistema fue la Estancia de Jes\u00fas Mar\u00eda, construida desde 1618 y que se encuentra al Noroeste de Jes\u00fas Mar\u00eda. Otras son la Estancia de Santa Catalina, iniciada por los jesuitas a partir de 1622 y que cuenta con el mayor conjunto edificado por la Compa\u00f1\u00eda fuera de C\u00f3rdoba capital, declarado Monumento Hist\u00f3rico; la Estancia de Alta Gracia (1643), en el coraz\u00f3n de esa ciudad; y la de La Candelaria (de la Compa\u00f1\u00eda a partir de 1683), en plenas sierras, 230 km al noroeste de la capital.<\/p>\n
