Many old cars in Argentina, they are really beautiful, but they seriously contaminate the air. Most are US-American brands, particular Ford and Chevrolet. But some VW and Peugeot (picture) Petrol is still cheap here, I litre costs about 40 Euro Cent.
View from the city on the lake Nahuel Huapi.
The center of Bariloche, often a copy of German, Austrian and Swiss Alpine architecture, which is actually partly looks really nice.
In the centre of the main square is a statue of a former Argentinean President, who leaded the useless, bloody and unfair war against Patagonia's Indians. In those short years basically all tribes were erased. Therefore today you cannot find any real Patagonian in Patagonia! This is until today not criticised by the Argentinean Government, in fact he is a national hero and his "cleaning" is printed on a current banknote.
The public sees that differently. See the vandalism of
Julio Argentino Roca´s
statue in the centre by clicking the picture to enlarge.
