Located in the lee of the Andes, Mendoza is Argentina's premier wine-producing area. In summer the climate is hot and humid, but the shady, tree-lined streets and gurgling fountains of its plazas help to keep the temperature down, as does adopting the 'Mendocino' way of life by taking a siesta during the hottest part of the day. In addition to its beautiful churches and fascinating museums Mendoza has a variety of accommodation to suit all tastes. Outside the city you can do a wine-tasting tour or venture into the sierra to see Latin America's highest peak, Aconcagua, and the area's many stunning lakes.
