Anyway, the city has only 63.600 inhabitants, but it has much more to do than one would expect. It's one of the major tourist cities in Argentina and you can go hiking in the Tierra del Fuego National Park, take a catamaran tour in the Beagle Channel (and see penguins in the summer), go skiing in the winter and so on.

It is also the capital of Tierra del Fuego, Antártida y Islas del Atlántico Sur (which, by the Argetinian definition, includes also the Falklands, you can see the Falklands in all Argentinian made maps), which is an oil-producing area in the country and it also gets revenue from it. Ushuaia has also some factories and they're the actual reason for the city having so many inhabitants. Nowadays the industrial park is being transferred to Río Grande, in the nothern part of the island, while Ushuaia is intended to become primarily a tourist city.

Anyway, I don't wanna bore you guys with so much talking, so let's take a look at the pics:

Punta Arenas - Chile's Extreme South Capital 14-09-2011 17:52

First we begin with Punta Arenas, the capital of Chile's XII Region, the southernmost one. It has around 120.000 inhabitants and lies on the Strait of Magellan. The city had a huge Croatian influx and still has some links with Croatia. The city center is very neat with beautiful constructions and beautiful open spaces. There's also a beautiful avenue that runs North-South in the city along the Strait of Magellan with nice views from it.

I also visited Fuerte Bulnes, which is 55km South from the city. It was built in 1850 in order to assure Chile's sovereignity over the region. It was completely destroyed and rebuilt and nowadays it is extremely well preserved.

Anyway, here you are the pics.

The Old Town is continually being restored and reconstructed. Last year, the Krakowskie Przedmiesce or Krakow Street underwent a massive redesign and is now a huge granite-paved pedestrian-preferred precinct that links most of the important landmarks of old Warsaw.
