Annually, between May and December, the whales of the southern region gather there for mating. From the bay of Puerto Piramides, one can make a boat trip out onto the open sea to witness this extraordinary event. Also, the peninsula is home to other species: sea lions, elephant seals, and even the biggest penguin colony (several million animals) outside the Antarctic.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/937\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more about this UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"nav fusion-mobile-tab-nav\"><ul class=\"nav-tabs nav-justified\"><li><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-ccb57311bb84045b966\" aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"mobile-fusion-tab-cuevadelasmanospintadas\" href=\"#tab-ccb57311bb84045b966\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\">Cueva de las Manos Pintadas<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"tab-pane fade fusion-clearfix\" role=\"tabpanel\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"fusion-tab-cuevadelasmanospintadas\" id=\"tab-ccb57311bb84045b966\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Manos.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignleft size-full wp-image-4700\" src=\"http:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Manos.png\" data-orig-src=\"http:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Manos.png\" alt=\"Manos\" width=\"347\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27347%27%20height%3D%27200%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20347%20200%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27347%27%20height%3D%27200%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Manos-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Manos.png 347w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 347px) 100vw, 347px\" \/><\/a>Rock paintings can be found in plenty of mountainous regions in Argentina.

There, you can find depictions of hands dating back to about 7350 B.C. Furthermore, paintings of hunting scenes, of animals like llamas and pumas, that are still to be found in the region today, are shown. It is assumed that the descendants of those tribes that created the rock paintings had lived in these caves until the arrival of the first European settlers in the 17th century.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/936\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more about this UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"nav fusion-mobile-tab-nav\"><ul class=\"nav-tabs nav-justified\"><li><a class=\"tab-link\" data-toggle=\"tab\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"tab-04207dc187883deb5af\" aria-selected=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" id=\"mobile-fusion-tab-nationalparklosglaciares\" href=\"#tab-04207dc187883deb5af\"><h4 class=\"fusion-tab-heading\">National Park Los Glaciares<\/h4><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"tab-pane fade fusion-clearfix\" role=\"tabpanel\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"fusion-tab-nationalparklosglaciares\" id=\"tab-04207dc187883deb5af\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Glaciares.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignleft size-full wp-image-4701\" src=\"http:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Glaciares.png\" data-orig-src=\"http:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Glaciares.png\" alt=\"Glaciares\" width=\"347\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27347%27%20height%3D%27200%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20347%20200%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27347%27%20height%3D%27200%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Glaciares-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/nice-network.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Glaciares.png 347w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 347px) 100vw, 347px\" \/><\/a>The glaciers in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.losglaciares.com\/en\/parque\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Glaciares National Park<\/a> are without doubt one of the most thrilling natural wonders on earth. While most glaciers worldwide are losing mass due to the global warming, you can watch the famous \u201cPerito Moreno\u201d glacier growing. From time to time and resulting from great pressure, giant blocks or ice towers tumble into the \u201cLago Argentino\u201d, accompanied by the sound of raving thunder. Tons of ice, the sizes of the mountains and the beauty of the lakes leave you unforgettable impressions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/145\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more about this UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/74"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/74\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19965,"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/74\/revisions\/19965"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nice-network.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
