Córdoba is Argentina's second city in size but feels like its own world — a youthful university town with a UNESCO-listed Jesuit Block of churches and colleges, a thumping student nightlife scene, and the rolling Sierras de Córdoba within easy reach for waterfalls, reservoirs and small mountain towns. It's a place that rewards lingering, with a culture that's distinctly its own, including a sing-song local accent locals are fiercely proud of.

Spent a few days in the city and took a day trip up to Villa General Belgrano in the sierras — great mix of city energy and mountain scenery.

Nueva Córdoba was full of life at night thanks to the student crowd. Hot in December but the food and people made up for it.
