Keep a little mystery in your trip planning: Explorer Picture Mode shows a stylized version of every place instead of the real photo, so you can go by the description and reviews first and picture it your own way -- reveal the real photo any time by flipping the switch off, or just for one place at a time from its own page.

Create a free account to pick your own style (Vintage, Oil Painting, Black & White) and have it remembered next time you visit.

Argentina

Argentina Geography

Changed

Argentina is the second-largest country in South America, stretching an enormous 3,700 kilometers from the subtropical north to Tierra del Fuego near Antarctica.

The Andes mountains run the length of the country's western border, home to Aconcagua, the tallest peak in the Americas, while the vast, fertile Pampas grasslands dominate the center.

The far south, Patagonia, is defined by dramatic granite peaks and glaciers, while the subtropical Northeast is home to Iguazu Falls, one of the world's largest waterfall systems.
