San Fernando del Valle de Catamarca, Provincial capital in northwestern Argentina.
San Fernando del Valle de Catamarca extends across 399 square kilometers at the base of Cerro Ambato, along the Rio Valle River.
Fernando de Mendoza y Mate de Luna established the permanent settlement in 1683, following earlier unsuccessful attempts to create a colony named Londres in 1558.
The Cathedral of Catamarca demonstrates the architectural evolution of the city through its combination of neo-Gothic and Baroque design elements.
The Coronel Felipe Varela International Airport connects the city with Buenos Aires through regular flights, while National Route 38 provides road access.
Local wineries in the region operate through irrigation systems due to low rainfall, producing distinctive wines from grapes grown in semi-arid conditions.
