Mendoza is one of Argentina's most beautiful cities. It is a bustling and energetic metropolis that basks daily in a sunny climate. It rests at the feet of the majestic Andes under the Aconcagua, which at a towering 22,835ft (6,960 meters), remains the highest peak in the Americas.

Nearby is the Christ the Redeemer Statue, which stands at a height of 13,000 feet (4000 meters) and represents peace and friendship between Chile and Argentina. Explore the Puente del Inca, a natural stone bridge nestled in ancient Inca ruins.

Mendoza's pleasant weather is also ideal for many outdoor activities such as mountain climbing, trekking, river rafting, wind sailing, and skiing.
