There are cities around the world that are characterized as romantic, and with beautiful landscapes worthy of being captured for eternity in a photograph. If your partner has promised he would go to the end of the world with you, and you believed that this wasn’t possible, believe me that it is. You should only visit Ushuaia.
Ushuaia is the ideal destination to visit with your partner and create ever lasting memories. Located in the Province of Tierra del Fuego in Argentina, it is known as “the city of the end of the world” because of its proximity to Antarctica. Its name comes from the Yamana language and means “bay that penetrates towards the west.” It is surrounded by beautiful mountain scenery and the blue Atlantic Ocean.
It is located 3,063 kilometers from the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires; so to get there is not too difficult. You should travel from the capital of the Albiceleste country and you can take any of their daily flights, some arriving directly in only three hours, others make connections with other provinces, extending the duration of the flight about to five hours. Once there, several things can be done with your partner while being in the city.
The Beagle Channel is a must for anyone visiting Ushuaia; to make the journey you should get to Bay City, then, board a catamaran that will take you through the channel. You can admire the beautiful mountain scenery, as well as visiting the Bridges Island. There you will see the famous “Les Eclaireurs” lighthouse or as it is also called “The Lighthouse at the End of the World“.
The “doomsday train” is an exceptional way to know a little bit about the history of the city. It has a distance of 7 kilometers, which is the distance between Ushuaia Jail and Mount Susana, and was known as the “train of prisoners” because prisoners were moved to the mountains in search of supplies. At the end of the ride, you can watch the site where the engines are stored, as well as the photographs of the prisoners who used to move the train.
Ushuaia offers endless outdoor activities for all tastes: romantic horseback riding, fishing, skiing, among others. We assure you that any activity you choose, you will enjoy it to the fullest with your partner.
One of the sites you shouldn’t miss is the Martial Glacier Mountain Center, located just seven kilometers from the city center. From there you can climb to the top of the glacier, where you can enjoy the beautiful view of the Ushuaia bay. Plus it’s one of the most romantic spots in the world.
Make sure your next trip with your partner is to this spectacular destination, your honeymoon or a simple romantic getaway. Ushuaia is the perfect city for romance.
Ushuaia what an idyllic place, definitely a very romantic trip to the end of the world. 😉
