With its end of the world feel,&nbsp;Argentina attracts and surprises. Its very rich&nbsp;unique culture,&nbsp;its varied breath-taking scenery&nbsp;or even&nbsp;its dynamic and bustling capital city, Buenos Aires,&nbsp;mesmerise travellers. Whether you choose to concentrate on one area, or alternatively travel the breadth and width of the country,&nbsp;a trip to Argentina has what it takes to satisfy all your desires. Its landmass covers a part of the luxurious&nbsp;amazon forest, pampas plains, and also the steppes and glaciers of Patagonia for&nbsp;enthusiasts of extensive&nbsp;hikes and treks. Argentina also shares two of its geographical landmarks between its neighbours, who are witnesses to the incredible diversity that the country has to offer: in the north-east the majestic&nbsp;Iguazu Falls&nbsp;are divided into three parts; one in Brazil, another in Paraguay, and finally the most spectacular falls of the park which are home to the Devil’s Throat, on the Argentinian side. Nearly 4,300km from there, at the southernmost point of the country, Argentina covers a third of the legendary Tierra del Fuego, the rest of which is controlled by Chile.&nbsp;Ushuaïa&nbsp;still remains to this day the Eldorado of escapism in the hearts of adventurers. So, are you ready for your&nbsp;trip to Argentina&nbsp;?

To be honest with you I would never have visited Trelew if I hadn't been invited by Luciana, an Argentine friend, to spend a long weekend.  Apart from the really good time I had with Luciana, I was a bit disappointed with how the town looked, although my friend had warned me that nowadays Trelew is a big industrial centre. I couldn't find any evidence of Welsh origins in the the town's architecture. However, the inhabitants are friendly and the beer flows freely in the little bars in the town centre!   The things I loved when I was in Trelew during <a href="/argentina/">my trip to Agentina</a> were mostly people and food. I tasted my first Patagonian lamb (cordero patagónico), and at tea time my first Argentine fruit cake (torta galesa) . My food loving soul would tell you that Trelew is worth a visit just for that! Finally, Trelew reminds us that Argentina is a country with a long history of immigration, a good example...

Trelew is a tranquil town that was colonised by Welsh immigrants in the 19th century.

During my <a href="/argentina/">trip to Argentina</a> I went from Puerto Madryn to Trelew. The main tourist attraction of the region is the Valdés peninsula. As I knew that Trelew is the main town of the region I expected to find a lot of hotels and restaurants here. I was very disappointed and I recommend that you stay in Puerto Madryn. I didn't find a single reason for going to Trelew. Its only attraction might be the feeling of being in a small suburban town, but it is famous for being like an real Welsh town and it isn't. The only reason for going to Trelew is to try the plate of cakes that is served at tea time. Other than this there are too many other things to do and see in the region to waste your time in Trelew.
