Yatasto relay, Historic relay station near San Jose de Metan, Argentina
The Yatasto relay station features a two-story colonial building with four ground-floor rooms, a kitchen, and a wooden-columned gallery.
During the Argentine War of Independence in 1812, General Manuel Belgrano took command from Juan Martin de Pueyrredon at this strategic location.
The relay station represents the evolution of communication networks in colonial South America, connecting different regions through the Royal Road system.
Visitors can reach the Yatasto relay by taking National Route 9/34 and following a short detour on a local road, 20 kilometers south of Metan.
The upper floor contains a room with a balcony overlooking the valley, topped by a distinctive red-tiled roof in the traditional colonial style.
