CITY DESCRIPTION: SAN MIGUEL DE TUCUMAN sometimes called Tucuman City is the capital of the province of Tucuman and is about 820 miles northwest of Buenos Aires. Boasting almost 500,000 inhabitants it is one of Argentina's older cities starting around 1600. But due to Indian problems, disease and lack of water it was moved to its present location about 90 years later. As provincial capital it is a commercial and government center with good communications, banking and transportation. While principally commercial in nature, there is still a lot to see and do for the tourist. Some ancient buildings are still standing, such as the House of Independence and many old houses and churches. It has a wide selection of hotels, restaurants, pubs and bars, car rentals and other tourist services. |
