San Juan Province, Province in western Argentina
San Juan Province spreads across 89,651 square kilometers of land, containing mountain ranges, desert regions, and fertile valleys that support agricultural activities.
The province gained its autonomy from the Province of Cuyo in 1820, following a period of significant involvement in Argentina's independence movement.
The Fiesta Nacional del Sol presents regional traditions through parades, music performances, and displays of local agricultural products from the province.
The province maintains extensive irrigation systems that enable grape cultivation and wine production, making it Argentina's second-largest wine-producing region.
The Ischigualasto Provincial Park contains significant paleontological sites with dinosaur fossils and geological formations dating back millions of years.
