In the end of the world, almost in the point of falling over the map, is the most southern city in the world: USHUAIA. The Onas, early settlers of the area, chose this name -which means Sun Bay- to call this city owner of a special charm, where in winter days are short and cold, in spring flowers blossom producing an explosion of colors and in summer the sun comes to stay high in the sky all day. Getting to this very end of the world is a deep experience, rarely forgotten.
