Rosario

Overview

Rosario's main claim to fame is the disputed fact that it was the bithrplace of Che Guevara - the apartment building Entre Rios 480 can be visited.

The city is located some 300 km upstream form Buenos Aires on the west bank of the Parana. It is one of the economic powerhouses of the Pampas.

The centre of town is the area around the Plaza 25 de Mayo and the pedestrianized streets of San Martin and Cordoba - great for shopping. The main attractions in town include a few Museums (Historico Provincial, de la Ciudad, Bellas Artes) and the Monumento nacional de la Bandera.
