Córdoba (stad, Argentinië) - Córdoba (city, Argentina)

Córdoba is die tweede grootste stad in Argentinië, met ongeveer 1,4 miljoen inwoners, en is die hoofstad van Cordoba provinsie. Dit is bekend vir sy ryk koloniale erfenis en sy ou universiteit, nou die tweede grootste van die land. U kan die historiese sentrum en die manjifieke kerke, die katedraal en die Jesuïtiese wyk met die Montserrat-skool en die ou universiteitsgeboue nie mis nie. Córdoba is ook die tuiste van die miskien gewildste Argentynse Latynse popmusiekgenre, cuarteto.

Die stad, gestig in 1573, is geleë in die hartjie van Sentraal Argentinië tussen die Pampas en Gran Chaco platteland in die ooste en die Sierras de Córdoba heuwels in die weste. Dit word omring deur pragtige valleie, gevorm deur drie hoofberggroepe, wat gewilde toeristebestemmings is. U kan 'n duik in die stedelike lewe perfek kombineer met 'n reis na Sierras, want daar is baie openbare vervoer.

Verstaan

Córdoba staan ​​onder baie bekend as La Docta vanweë die vele universiteite en wetenskapsinstitute. Ongeveer 200,000 mense studeer hier, wat die stad se bevolking een van die jongste en lewendigste in Suid-Amerika maak. Daar is baie kulturele en naglewe, hoofsaaklik in die middestad (sentro) en die buurte van Güemes, Nueva Córdoba, Cerro de las Rosas en Alta Córdoba.

Die koloniale argitektuur van die middestad bestaan ​​nou saam met baie moderne geboue. Alhoewel die oudste geboue in die omgewing van die Plaza San Martín (mikrosentrum) voorkom, is die aangenaamste gebiede nou die Nueva Córdoba distrik suid van die sentrum en die gebied rondom die Cañada, 'n klein koloniale kanaal wat die stad deurkruis. Hierdie gebiede toon 'n mengsel van goed ontwerpte moderne geboue en pragtige ou huise, dikwels gebou in neo-koloniale styl. Die ou distrik Barrio Güemes, waar baie geboue deur munisipale wette beskerm word, is nou besonder aangenaam, met 'n 19de-eeuse atmosfeer wat soortgelyk is aan Buenos Aires' San Telmo distrik, maar met meer lewe op straat. Dit is swaar geraak deur gentrifikasie.

Die stadsdistrik beslaan 529 km² en het 1,3 miljoen inwoners. Die bevolkingsgroei in die stad het die afgelope dekades afgeneem, en baie mense het na voorstede en satellietdorpe buite hierdie gebied verhuis. Diegene wes van die stad lê in die heuwels van die stad Sierras de Córdoba en is woongebiede met 'n paar toeriste-aantreklikhede (sien Gaan Volgende). Noord en oos van die stad, in die vlaktes, is daar arm voorstede met 'n krotagtige voorkoms soos Juárez Celman en Malvinas Argentinas.

Klimaat

Die klimaat in die stad en omliggende gebiede is die hele jaar aangenaam. Selfs in die winter is daar gereeld warm, sonnige dae, hoewel u voorbereid moet wees op koue nagte en koue, bewolkte tydperke wat nooit langer as 'n week of so duur nie. Gedurende die somer, die reënseisoen (November tot Maart), is dit warm en vogtig met gereelde reënbuie en donderstorms die middag. Die reën veroorsaak plek-oorstroming as gevolg van 'n onbevredigende dreineringstelsel. Die beste tyd om Córdoba te besoek is Maart tot Mei en Augustus tot November, wanneer dit nie te warm of te koel is nie en daar min reën is.

Geskiedenis

Córdoba is in 1573 gestig deur Jerónimo Luis de Cabrera. Vir die eerste twee eeue van sy geskiedenis was dit die grootste en belangrikste stad in die streek wat vandag Argentinië is, totdat Buenos Aires in 1776 tot hoofstad van die Virreinato del Río de la Plata. Córdoba se universiteit is reeds in 1613 deur die Jesuïete gestig. Die Katolieke Kerk het tot 1900 'n groot invloed op die sosiale lewe gehad, en Córdoba is soms 'die Rome van Argentinië' genoem as 'n vesting vir konserwatiwisme.

In die 1950's is die stad geïndustrialiseer deur die Perón en Frondizi-regerings. In die daaropvolgende dekades verander Córdoba in Argentinië se tweede tegnologiese middelpunt agter Buenos Aires, en lei veral die motorbedryf (IKA - nou Renault -, Volkswagen en Fiat), lugvaart (die beroemde Fábrica Militar de Aviones, Die grootste vliegtuigprodusent van Argentinië, is hier) en later in hoëtegnologie-sektore soos sagteware en elektronika. Die tweede helfte van die 20ste eeu is ook gekenmerk deur plofbare bevolkingsaanwas as gevolg van migrasie uit Noord-Argentinië. In 1980, die metropolitaanse gebied, en in die sensus van 1991 het die stad die miljoen inwoners verbygesteek.

Córdoba het 'n groot rol gespeel in sommige van die rewolusionêre bewegings in die 20ste eeuse Argentinië. In 1918 het 'n studenterevolusie, die Reforma Universitaria, het gelei tot 'n modernisering van die huidige Nasionale Universiteit, wat tot op hierdie tydstip baie konserwatief en elitisties was. Hierdie rewolusie het versprei na alle stede van Argentinië en die grootste deel van Latyns-Amerika, wat gelei het tot meer outonomie en openheid in die plaaslike onderwysinstellings. In 1955 het die konserwatiewe Revolución Libertadora gelei tot die bedanking van president Juan Perón. In 1969 en 1971 het twee linkse onluste bekend as Cordobazo en Viborazo was een van die hoofredes vir die einde van die militêre diktatuur wat Argentinië sedert 1966 regeer het. Terwyl die stad in die 2001/02-krisis redelik stil was, het 'n berugte polisie-oproer in 2013 gelei tot twee nagte se geweld wat versprei het na ander streke van Argentinië.

Begin met die vroeë 1970's, en sterker nadat die demokratisering in 1983 plaasgevind het, het die voorheen baie konserwatiewe stad begin oopgaan en ontwikkel tot 'n kosmopolitiese streekmetropool. 'N Unieke stedelike populêre kultuur wat gekenmerk word deur komedie, teater en die cuarteto musiek begin verskyn. Terselfdertyd het Córdoba sy ekonomie gediversifiseer en ontwikkel van 'n industriële-regerings provinsiale stad tot 'n belangrike middelpunt vir handel, kultuur, onderwys en dienste.

Gaan in

Dit is baie maklik om Córdoba vanaf ander dele van Argentinië te bereik vanweë sy posisie in die land se geografiese sentrum.

Met die vliegtuig

• -31.31-64.2083331 Ingeniero Taravella Internasionale Lughawe (Pajas Blancas) (10 km (6 myl) noord van die middestad). Daar is vlugte na verskeie dorpe in Argentinië, na Lima, Santiago de Chile, Panama-stad en sommige stede in Brasiliëhoewel daar nou minder vlugte is as in die negentigerjare vanweë die swakker Argentynse Peso na die Argentynse ekonomiese krisis van 2001/2002. As u van oorsee kom, kan u verander Buenos Aires, São Paulo of Santiago de Chile. Die beste verbinding vanaf die Verenigde State is miskien via Panama City. As u deur Buenos Aires vlieg, moet u waarskynlik vanaf Ezeiza lughawe na Aeroparque Jorge Newbery op u eie met u bagasie, en die pendelbusdiens is relatief duur, meer as die helfte van die prys van 'n taxi.  

Vanaf die Córdoba-lughawe is daar 'n gereelde bus na die middestad (25, ongeveer US $ 0,60, sal bestuurders dikwels weier om passasiers met te veel bagasie te neem), 'n minibusdiens en taxi's (ongeveer $ 130-170). Vanaf die Taravella-lughawe stop daar ook direkte busse op pad tussen Córdoba se busterminaal en die aantreklike voorstad Río Ceballos, maar hierdie bushalte is 5 minute loop van die snelweg E-55 af en is sleg gemerk. plaaslik vir die presiese ligging. Verder het die grootste motorhuuragentskappe kantore op die lughawe.

Met die trein

Tot in die 1980's was Córdoba 'n belangrike spoorwegsentrum met baie verbindings. Vandag, Trenes Argentinos het net een langafstandlyn oor met passasiersdienste, die spoorweg vanaf Buenos Aires, via Villa María en Rosario, twee keer per week. Die trein is baie goedkoop in vergelyking met busse en het 'n trekkergedeelte en slaapplek, maar die reis is ongeveer 5 uur langer as gevolg van die verswakte spoorstawe. Gelukkig is die slegste deel van die spoorweg in 2015 opgeknap. U moet ook vroegtydig bespreek, aangesien die vraag hoog is. Besprekings is slegs by die treinstasies moontlik en u moet u paspoort of ID-kaart toon wanneer u die kaartjies koop. Daar is ook drie keer per week 'n plaaslike trein vanaf Villa María.

Die hoofstasie, -31.420453-64.1751772 Estación Mitre , is naby die omnibusterminal, op Bv. Juan Domingo Perón 101. Nog 'n stasie in die omgewing van Barrio Ferreyra (ongeveer 12 km suid-oos van die middestad). Nog 'n treinstasie is -31.398237-64.1801633 Alta Córdoba ongeveer 1 km noord van die Suquía-rivier in Jerónimo Luis de Cabrera-straat. Daarvandaan is daar 2-3 plaaslike treine per dag na Cosquín via La Calera en die San Roque-dam (baie mooi reis, maar stadig).

Met die motor

Die stad is verbind met die meeste groter dorpe deur goeie geasfalteerde roetes. 'N Snelweg verbind Cordoba met Rosario en vandaar na die Buenos Aires - Santa Fe snelweg. 'N Ander snelweg verbind Córdoba met Carlos Paz, 'n ander tweespoorweg gaan na Alta Gracia. Vanaf 2015 word daar snelweë met twee rybane na Santa Fe gebou, Río Cuarto in die suide van die provinsie op pad na Patagonië, en Villa del Totoral op pad na Tucumán en Noordwes.

Met die bus

Busse is nou die gewildste openbare vervoer. Die hoof busstasie, -31.422793-64.1756214 Terminal de Ómnibus de Córdoba (TOC), is in die ooste van die middestad, tussen Boulevard Illía en Boulevard Perón strate (rigting: Boulevard Perón 380), naby die Río Suquía en die Mitre treinstasie. Daar is direkte verbindings na alle groot stede, provinsiale hoofstede en die belangrikste toeristebestemmings van Argentinië, met die uitsondering van Ushuaia (u sal in Río Gallegos moet verander) en Viedma (veranderinge moontlik in Bahía Blanca en San Antonio Oeste). Baie gereeld busse na Buenos Aires (11 uur), Salta (12 uur) en Rosario (5½ uur). Ook die plaaslike busse na die voorstede stop hier.

Die busstasie het twee afsonderlike terminale geboue, T1 of Terminal Vieja en T2 of Terminal Nueva, verbind via 'n tonnel. Dit is die ouer gebou T1 waar die meeste langafstandbusse aankom, en die nuwer T2 is meestal toegewy aan plaaslike verbindings en sommige lyne na Patagonië. Neem in ag dat die hele stasie ongeveer 700 m lank is, dus is dit goed om vroeg op te daag as u nie die hek ken waarvandaan u bus begin nie.

Vanaf die busterminaal is daar baie moontlikhede om die belangrikste hotelle en besienswaardighede te bereik, want dit is 500-800 m van die bus af mikrosentro.

• Eerstens kan u die mikrosentro gebied perfek loopNeem byvoorbeeld die straat van Boulevard Perón in die noorde en dan Rosario de Santa Fe in die weste, wat u na San Martín-plein, die katedraal en die voetgangersentrums neem.
• Tweedens, verskeie plaaslike stedelike buslyne neem jou na die mikrosentro en ander gebiede. Daar is drie stedelike bushaltes rondom die terminale (sleg gemerk): in Bv. Illia naby T1 tussen die straat Tránsito Cáceres de Allende en Paraná, en in Bv. Perón; waar daar twee haltes is, een by T1 en een by T2. U moet eers 'n buskaart koop (sien Kry rond afdeling); u kan dit doen in sommige kiosks by die terminale met die Rooi Bus teken.
• Derdens is daar twee taxi stasies in T1 en 'n kleiner in T2. In T2 is die stasie waar u met die taxi na die middestad kan ry, op die hoofverdieping geleë. Die een wat na die oostelike woonbuurte lei, is op die onderste verdieping.

Nog 'n kleiner busstasie is by Mercado Sur, ongeveer 400 m suid van Plaza San Martín in Bv. Illia straat. Slegs plaaslike en streekbusse, bv. aan Carlos Paz en Villa General Belgrano, stop hier. Daar is 'n paar ander klein kort- en middelafstand-bushaltes gemerk met 'n rooi bordjie (Parada de Transporte Interurbano) maar u moet by die hoofterminaal (of plaaslike inwoners) vra watter busse daar stop, want daar is geen aanduidings nie.

Kry rond

Met die bus

Stedelike buslyne: Sedert die tramweg in die 1960's afgeskaf is, is openbare vervoer beperk tot busse. Dit is volgens internasionale standaarde goedkoop, maar dikwels baie druk. Die lyne is in gange verdeel, elkeen het 'n kleur en 'n nommer: Rojo (Rooi gange 3 en 8), Naranja (Oranje, gange 1 en 6), Azul (Blou, gange 2 en 7 (maar busse is vir eers rooi en geel!), Amarillo (Geel, gange 4 en 5). Die buslynnommer is 'n kombinasie van die gangnommer en die nommer van die lyn, bv. 40 of 51. 'n Paar lyne het verskillende roetes, maar dit is baie minder 'n oriënteringsprobleem as in Buenos Aires.

Daar is trolliebusse (A, B, en C) en twee sirkellyne (500-501 en 600-601). Daar is ook 'n paar buurtlyne (barriale) wat minder kos as die gewone tarief.

Tariewe: Die stedelike busse van Córdoba gebruik uitsluitlik die sg Rooi Bus elektroniese kaartjiestelsel. U benodig 'n buskaart wat by amptelike verkooppunte (groen / blou poste) in die middestad gekoop kan word, by sommige kiosks (soek die Rooi Bus teken), by die omnibus-terminale en op die lughawe. Die ou busmuntstukke (evangelies) word nie meer aanvaar nie. Bestuurders weier gereeld om pesos te aanvaar, maar u kan ook ander passasiers vra of hulle hul kaart vir u gaan leen. Die meeste busse sal vroeg in 2016 $ 8,25 hef. Die busse van die lyn 500-501 en 600-601, wat in die buitewyke van die stad rondloop, sal 15% meer kos. As u twee verskillende lyne van verskillende kleure met net 60 minute wag kombineer, betaal u slegs $ 1,80 vir die tweede bus, en dit is gratis om tussen verskillende lyne van dieselfde gang te kombineer rigting (dus kan u normaalweg nie na u beginpunt terugkeer sonder om nog 'n kaartjie te koop nie). Daar is geen weeklikse of maandelikse tariewe nie.

Daar is ook interurbanos wat die voorstede van die stad bedien. Hulle bereken dienooreenkomstig die afstand na die terminale. Die pryse wissel van ongeveer AR $ 15 tot La Calera tot $ 40 tot by die randvoorstede van Villa Carlos Paz, Jesús María en Cosquín.

Met die taxi

Geel taxi's en groen remises, soortgelyk aan taxi's, maar met 'n ander tariefstelsel, is 'n gemaklike manier om rond te kom, met pryse vanaf ongeveer $ 25 vir 'n rit van 15 blokke. Ingevolge die reëls kan geel taxi's geprys word om op straat af te haal, maar groen remises is toegewy aan die afhaal van 'n spesifieke plek na ontvangs van 'n telefoniese versoek. Maar hierdie reëls is los, en u kan dikwels met sukses 'n groen remis op straat haal. Taxibestuurders is baie sensitief oor hul motors. Maak die deur stadig toe as u gaan, en onthou om u voete op die grond te hou. Daar is ook geen veiligheidsgordels in die meeste taxi's nie. Oor die algemeen is taxi's en remise veilig; maar dit kan selfs veiliger wees om in sommige situasies 'n taxi of remis telefonies te bel, bv. wanneer u na die lughawe reis.

Per fiets

Verkeer in die middestad raak al hoe warmer, en die vinnigste manier om in hierdie gebied te beweeg (as u gesond genoeg is daarvoor) is beslis per fiets.

Córdoba het 'n redelike uitgebreide fietspad netwerk (Rooi de Ciclovías) gebou in die 1980's en 1990's. Ongelukkig is die fietspaaie swak onderhou en het daar groot gapings, en dit gaan ook deur vervalle woonbuurte met 'n hoë misdaadsyfer en word nie aanbeveel vir toeriste nie. Die skilderagtige fietspad loop parallel met die Suquía-rivier en is 'n goeie opsie om die stad van oos na wes oor te steek. Die fietsryinfrastruktuur in die middestad beslaan slegs enkele hoofweë in die Nueva Córdoba en Centro-omgewing, wat die Universiteitskampus verbind (Ciudad Universitaria) met die Patio Olmos, die busterminus en die regeringsgebou (Centro Cìvico).

As gevolg van fietsdiefstal is dit 'n goeie idee om die fiets op 'n beskermde parkeerterrein te parkeer, veral in die middestad. Volgens wetgewing is alle openbare parkeergarages (playa de estacionamiento) moet fietse aanvaar, maar sommige weier om dit te doen of vra u dieselfde prys as vir 'n motorfiets. Maipú Parkering in Av. Maipú is 'n goeie opsie met 'n lae prys in die middestad. As u buite die sentrale distrik met u fiets wil gaan inkopies doen, moet u daarop let dat slegs groot supermarkte en winkelsentrums (relatief) veilige fietsparkeergeriewe bied.

Daar is geen openbare fietsverhuringstelsel in die stad nie, hoewel daar planne is om een ​​in te stel. Daar is slegs 'n paar fietsverhuringsagentskappe in Córdoba, waarvan twee Córdoba huur 'n fiets in San Martín 5 en Baluch Backpacker's Hostel in San Martín 338.

Sport

Daar is baie sportklubs waar u 'n wye verskeidenheid sportsoorte kan doen, aangesien u die gewildste vereniging sokker, basketbal en Veldhokkie. Die klubs vra meestal 'n maandelikse fooi. Daar is ook betaalde sokkervelde (meestal van kleiner grootte vir 5 of 7 spelers per span), en u kan inline skate, mountainbike en sokker speel op 'n informele manier in die parke, soos die Parque Sarmiento, en die vele plazas in die barrios buite die middestad.

Die Universidad Nacional de Córdoba bied kursusse aan in verskillende sportsoorte, insluitend klim en seil. Secretaría de Educación Física, Av. Valparaíso S / N.

Verenigingsokker (sokker) is die gewildste sport, soos in die grootste deel van Argentinië. Die bekendste sokkerspanne van Córdoba is Belgrano, Talleres en Instituto. Belgrano speel in die Eerste Divisie, Instituto in die Tweede Divisie (B Nacional) en Talleres in die derde afdeling. Córdoba het ook 'n baie goeie basketbalspan, Atenas, wat die rekord van kampioenskappe in Argentinië hou en bekend staan ​​as een van die bestes buite die VSA.

Stadions:

• Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes, Gem. R.C. Cárcano, Parque San Martín. Ook bekend as die "Olimpiese" stadion (hoewel daar nooit Olimpiese spele in Argentinië was nie). Dit behoort nie tot 'n spesifieke klub nie, en daarom word alle belangrike sokkerwedstryde en baie ander sport- en vermaaklikheidsgeleenthede hier gehou. Met 'n kapasiteit van 55 000 toeskouers (alle-sitplekke) is dit een van die grootste stadions in Argentinië.
• Estadio Presidente Perón, Jujuy / Quevedo, Bo. Alta Córdoba, Instituto se stadion, is die tweede grootste. Kapasiteit: 30.000.
• Estadio Gigante de Alberdi (amptelike naam: Julio César Villalba, Belgrano se stadion), Arturo Orgaz / La Rioja, naby Av. Colón in die Alberdi-omgewing, is die derde grootste met 28 000 toeskouers.

Swem

Alhoewel sommige inwoners dit doen, word dit nie aanbeveel om in die besoedelde Río Suquía te swem nie, behalwe vir die uiterste noordweste van die stad. Daar is gewaarborg dat huise in die noordweste van die stad swembaddens het tot by Unquillo.

As u nie na die buitewyke wil reis nie, kan u in die vele swem piscinas (swembaddens) in die stad self, en selfs in die middestad, maar die meeste van hulle is redelik arm, en u sal 'n mediese ondersoek moet slaag. Die grootste openbare swembad is die Pileta Municipal in Sarmiento Park, maar is eers oop tussen laat Desember en begin Maart en dikwels baie druk.

U kan op die volgende plekke in die omgewing swem:

• La Calera, 18 km (11 myl) noord-wes van die sentrum, waar die Suquía skoon is en daar baie aangename kolle is, met rotse en klein watervalle, soos Diquecito en Casa Bamba.
• Río Ceballos, 'n baie aantreklike voorstad, 30 km noordwes van die middelpunt in die heuwels, kan met 'n baie goeie snelweg bereik word. Daar is die La Quebrada kunsmatige meer, met 'n dam, en in die omgewing is daar baie riviere en watervalle.
• Anizacate, Los Aromos, La Bolsa en La Serranita naby Alta Gracia, 30 km (18 myl) suid-wes, met rivierstrande en baie rustigheid.
• Villa Carlos Paz, by die rivier San Antonio. Hoe meer sentrale strande soos Fantasio in die somer baie druk, en die San Roque-meer het net klein strande en is besoedel. Gaan dus beter na die strande suid van die sentrale gebied soos Playas de Oro en nabygeleë strande by Mayu Sumaj en Icho Cruz. By Cuesta Blanca 10 km (6 myl) suid van Carlos Paz, is daar 'n geïsoleerde, baie aantreklike strand na 40 minute se stap, die Playa de los Hippies.

Daar is baie busse (elke 20-30 minute) na al die genoemde plekke.

Gebeurtenisse

Byeenkomste soos kongresse, byeenkomste, groot konserte en uitstallings word by die volgende sentrums gehou:

• Predio Feriar, Gem. Ramón Cárcano, Parque San Martín. Groot geleenthede en kongresse, sommige feeste.
• Orfeo Superdomo, Rodriguez del Busto / Cordillera (Bo. Villa Cabrera), musiek- en sportbyeenkomste, insluitend boks

Sommige geleenthede vind ook plaas in die bogenoemde sokkerstadions.

'N Paar belangrike en interessante jaarlikse gebeure is die Feria Internacional de Artesanías (kuns en kunsvlyt) in die herfs en die Book fair in September. Since 2005, Córdoba hosts Sexpoerótica, the most important adult convention of Argentina and now one of the largest of Latin America, with more than 70,000 visitors in 2014, in autumn.

Die Noche de los Museos is an irregular event (2-3 times per year) when you can visit many museums of the city without having to pay, until 01:00 or 02:00.

LGBT travelers

Córdoba has the reputation of being a conservative city, but the LGBT presence and tolerance towards them has increased greatly over recent decades. The first dedicated gay club of Argentina, Piaf, has been opened here in the 1980s, and there are now strong organizations lobbying for LGBT issues. There are also some travel agencies specialized in LGBT visitors. If you are in trouble or simply need information about the gay scene in Córdoba, there is a phone service for LGBT tourists (0800-268-0532) operated by the local web portal Lugares Gay CBA, a good source of information about the local options.

Although local LGBT people tend to be less extroverted than in Buenos Aires, as a LGBT visitor you can show your affections openly, at least in the cosmopolitan central districts (Centro, Nueva Córdoba, the eastern parts of Güemes en Alberdi, en General Paz). In the poorer neighborhoods and the outskirts of the city, however, you should be more careful (including the western part of Güemes quarter around Zen club), as there have been incidents of discrimination against LGBT people and tolerance generally is lower.

Leer

There are many public and private universities, which are open to foreigners for studies and research. The largest is the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, with 120.000 students, particularly good in technology, medicine and architecture.

Many organizations will give you a Spanish course, the cheapest are the ones of the local university, but they are at least for a year. Intensive courses from private institutions can be very expensive, up to US$ 1000 for three weeks, though lower cost options do exist.

Werk

Córdoba has now a comparatively low unemployment rate (9%), but wages are considerably lower than in Buenos Aires (but also the prices).

With English and Spanish knowledge you can work in many sectors, like gastronomy, tourism, or telemarketing (best chance for a part-time job).

The city actually has a fast-growing software industry and there is a lack of qualified personnel. So if you are a software engineer you have good chances of finding a relatively well paid job in Córdoba.

If you want to work, you should get your work permit in your home country, although it's also possible to get it in the local Dirección Nacional de Migraciones (migration office), at Caseros / Ayacucho, if you come from a country with a visa-free agreement with Argentina.

Koop

Córdoba is a good shopping city, and you can buy near all kind of things at reasonable prices. The most active zone is the Peatonal pedestrian mall around San Martín Square and the nearby Mercado Norte en Mercado Sur areas, with cheaper prices. In the Nueva Córdoba and Güemes quarters, but also in some central galleries, there are shops and boutiques with locally designed clothing.

Local arts and crafts are sold at the Paseo de las Artes (Saturday and Sunday after 17:00), where you also can buy some local food like salamis, honey, and alfajores (a local sweet with dulce de leche) in the very pleasant Güemes district (see above). The area is now the most popular shopping area at weekends.

There is also a smaller arts and crafts market at Plaza San Martín, and some others at other city squares. In summer some craftsmen move to the Sierras, where there is an attractive market at the dam Dique San Roque 10 km (6 mi) north of Carlos Paz, 15 km (9 mi) west of La Calera and 25 km (15 mi) from Córdoba itself, via route E-55.

There are many galleries and some modern shopping malls. The most well-known are Patio Olmos and Garden Shopping (central district), Dinosaurio Mall and Córdoba Shopping (northwest), and the Nuevo Centro Shopping (west) where there is also the Sheraton Hotel. They are popular with middle-class Argentines, but the offer is limited to large franchises. Note that electronic items like televisions, cameras and computers usually have higher prices than in Europe and the US; cellular phones from established brands tend to be most expensive.

An interesting experience is to visit the flea market in Villa El Libertador neighborhood (about 8 km south-west of the city center) on Sunday mornings, the center of the Bolivian community, where you can find also cheap Andean food.

Eet

Gastronomy hubs are the city center (particularly General Paz, Illia and Colón avenues), the Cerro de las Rosas area (large restaurants, relatively high prices, often pleasant outdoor bars), Güemes (Belgrano and Alvear streets, with a mix of mid-range and upscale restaurants and bars), General Paz (with some of the most renowned restaurants) and Nueva Córdoba (mostly fast food). In the main avenues of the outskirts you will find some good places to eat, too.

Nightlife

The text in this nightlife section dates from 2006.

Cordoba has a vibrant nightlife although it dies of somewhat during the university holidays over Christmas and doesn't get going again until March-ish. There are places to cater for all tastes from dingy bars to live shows to the latest and greatest music. The main events can be seen at the Voz website owned by the La Voz del Interior newspaper and in the newspaper, that carries an event guide every Thursday. If you like electronic music, the web portal Cosmobeat will guide you to the main events in city and surroundings. The gothic scene is under-represented, there are only irregular parties.

Most clubs close at 05:00, and there is a local law prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages between 05:00 and 09:00. The once-vibrant afterhour scene has died somewhat since this law came into force. Also don't expect too much night life between Sunday and Tuesday, when only a few clubs are open (Monday night has the least events).

In the following three districts there is the most active night life:

• Nueva Córdoba, home of many students from other Argentine towns, with many bars and pubs and some mainstream clubs
• Güemes, particularly in the Belgrano street, the Marcelo T. de Alvear avenue ("La Cañada" area) and the surroundings, with many pleasant bars and some few larger clubs. Some good clubs are also in the Roca avenue west of Cañada.
• Ex Abasto, the former red-light district near River Suquía, many rock and cuarteto clubs and some greater discothèques, wide variety of music between mainstream and underground. The surrounding area is relatively unsafe, so keep at the main streets, which at weekends are full of young people.
• Chateau Carreras, near Parque San Martín, the most "chic" area, expensive clubs, most of electronic music and international pop, but also some cuarteto parties.

There are also some expensive clubs in the Cerro de las Rosas distrik. In Alta Córdoba and nearby General Bustos districts there are some arte bars with live music. In the suburbs of Villa Allende, Saldán en La Calera there are some popular clubs too. In summer there is a very active night life in Villa Carlos Paz, private minibuses will take you to the biggest clubs from Plaza Vélez Sarsfield at 01:00 if you pay the entrance fare in advance.

The authentic urban music of Córdoba is the lively, fast Cuarteto dance music. It was invented in the 1940s by Cuarteto Leo group but has changed greatly in the 1980s and 1990s, including Central American (merengue) and pop influences. Bands of this genre play live several times a week, in the so-called bailes, at sport centers, halls and great discothèques. Most of the visitors of these bailes are from the lower social classes. If you want to visit a baile, particularly that of the most popular singer La Mona Jiménez, it's best to take a local with you. There is sometimes fighting between local gangs, but male visitors generally only get in trouble if they speak to someone's girlfriend. For women there are no special dangers, because Argentine men are generally very polite to them, but don't feel disturbed if many guys want to speak to you ...

• Bar de Don Mario, San Martín / Rondeau (Nueva Córdoba), a little, cheap rock bar in Nueva Córdoba, frequented by students

Bly veilig

The city is considered safer than Buenos Aires and Rosario, but it's not free of crime. Beware of pick pocketing on the local buses, above all when they are crowded (as they normally are). The avenidas of the Centro and Nueva Córdoba areas are normally safe around the clock, except the area near the Río Suquía from Monday to Thursday (at weekends there is much night-life there and it's safer). There are some dangerous districts and suburbs, but they have no tourist attractions, they often are situated near the outer ring-road (Avenida Circunvalación).

The Tourist Police of Córdoba (Tourpol) is made up of 60 troops who speak English and Portuguese, and whose mission is to protect tourists and historical heritage from the so-called "tourist mile", between Plaza San Martín and Plaza España. Tourpol's base of operations is located at Calle Independencia 255, between 27 de Abril y Caseros.

There are no special health risks, apart from homeless dogs in the suburbs that ocasionally bite, and some spider and scorpion species which can be dangerous for small children and elderly people. In some areas, particularly in the South-East and in the eastern Río Suquía area water and air are polluted, which is a great danger for the people who live there, but this districts are normally outside of tourist's itineraries.

There are many hospitals. Two of the best of the private ones are the Hospital Privado in the south-west of the city, and the Sanatorio Allende in Nueva Córdoba (Obispo Oro and Buenos Aires) and the Cerro de las Rosas. If you don't have medical security, you will be attended at the public hospitals, above all the Hospital de Urgencias for emergencies in the city centre, at no cost, but if you can you should donate some money because there is sometimes lack of medicines and other elements. South-east of the new bus terminal there is a public hospital hub (the Polo Sanitario) where you normally will find specialists for every disease or health problem.

Die Sierras de Córdoba, the hill district west of the city, is the second most popular tourist destination of Argentina after the Atlantic Coast. The nearest resorts are only 20 km (12 mi) of the Circunvalación ring road. The Sierras have a vegetation similar to the Gran Chaco area, with dense bushland and some small woods. There are many little canyons and several reservoirs and rivers with pleasant swimming.

Punilla Valley

Die Punilla valley is situated about 25 km west of Córdoba. In the valley you will find mountainous rocky villages like Bialet Massé and Villa Giardino with picturesque sights, small rivulets, small waterfalls and rivers, environmentally-friendly people and pure air.

The way to the valley is sinuous and it is surrounded by Sierras Chicas and Sierras Grandes with their naturally beautiful landscapes, which are very attractive for tourists.

• Villa Carlos Paz, about 30 km west of Córdoba near the San Roque dam, is the most popular and crowded tourist resort of the valley and the whole Sierras region, but has few real attractions aside from the scenery and nightlife. The 60.000-inhabitant town is very crowded in January and February and at some weekends, but quiet the rest of the year.
• Other larger towns in the Punilla Valley are Cosquín, which hosts many musical festivals, La Falda, La Cumbre en Capilla del Monte, where you can ascend to Cerro Uritorco, a hill with great views of the valley.

• Alta Gracia, 30 km south-west, on the road to Calamuchita valley. The 50,000-inhabitant town hosts a baroque Jesuit estancia, located very beautifully near an artificial lake, and a Che Guevara museum. Nearby there are pleasant little towns like Anizacate en La Serranita with river beaches.
• The more southerly resorts of the Sierras like La Cruz, Achiras or Río de los Sauces (particularly pleasant, with good trekking) are less crowded in the holiday season than the most popular valleys.
• About 250 km (155 mi) NE is the huge Mar Chiquita salt lake, with an extension of about 6000 km² (2,300 sq mi) the second largest lake of South America. The only beach resort at its shoreline, Miramar, is far less crowded than most of the Sierras towns, and there is an interesting bird-life. It was one of Argentina's most popular health resorts in the 1950s and 1960s, but still suffers an inundation from 1975 when the lake destroyed the coastal boulevard and the old town centre, but now has been re-modeled and is getting more popular again.

Córdoba is a good stopping point if you go from Buenos Aires to the Andean Northwest with its beautiful tourist attractions. Salta is 13 hours north by bus.
