A short flight from Buenos Aires, Argentina’s second city Cordoba is perched at the foot of the Sierra de Cordoba ridge at the heart of the country, almost half way between the roaring Atlantic coast and the snow-capped Andes. Nicknamed “La Docta” owing to the number of scientific institutions and university, one of the oldest in South America, Cordoba is an attractive, bustling city where colonial landmarks meet modern architecture.
