Rosario, the "hidden jewel of Argentina" -Claire Weaver

We passed through this sweet little town, Rosario, five hours between Córdoba and Buenos Aires each respectively. It´s known as the cleanest city in Argentina... or at least fast becoming the cleanest city. It´s a beautiful town and you can easily take a ferry to river-island-beaches. I wish we had staid longer actually but we only had one rainy afternoon to see the town. Also, Ernesto "Che" Guevara lived here (though he was born in Córdoba I believe?). We tried knocking on his door but no one answered.

This is the train station at 6 AM.

A monument to the national flag of Argentina. We eventually took refuge here from the rain while we waited to leave for Buenos Aires on the night bus.

A VERY wide river...

Maybe it´s hard to tell?

Knocking on Che´s door. No response.

Downtown Rosario in a hurry, trying to not be run over.
