Buenos Aires & the Rio de la Plata seen from space
Posted on 20 Oct in Argentina Buenos Aires
Looking some stuff up for the quiz the other day and I came across this NASA photo on Wikipedia of the River Plate and Buenos Aires. The added captions are mine, click for larger view.
With North on the left of the image it gives a good idea of how enormous the River Plate is and how small, relatively speaking Buenos Aires is. Even today you can see how the size of the surrounding Pampa dwarves the city.
