Answered by Hector Perren , Santiago del Estero, Argentina
The oldest city in Argentina is Santiago del Estero. It is known as "Mother of Cities" because of this. It doesn't have though many touristic places. It is a very small town, and the treasure of this area are the people themselves.
The historical places are located in Tucuman, Salta, Misiones and Cordoba.
Tucuman is the city where Independence was declare. In Salta you have wonderful landscapes, wines and traditional food. In Misiones, there are the Jusuit Ruins and the Iguazu Falls.
