Page 5 - NORTHERN PLAINS TOURIST GUIDE

Introduction
If you are interested in exploring caves, the Northern Plains stand out, once again, on the national map with the Venado Caverns, made up of a system of underground caverns with unique geological features that are at least 2,000 meters in length. Walking inside these caverns is a must for adventurers and nature lovers.
The people of the Northern Plains await you with their warm and friendly attention. Don’t miss a visit that will allow you to get to learn about rural tourism, the local culture and its diverse traditions always accompanied by a kind smile from the locals. On the way, you may run into one of the famous fairs that take place in any of the towns throughout the region, where there will be no shortage of bull riding events, livestock auctions, local gastronomy, music, and dancing.
The region invites you to explore its rural towns for the perfect combination of nature, adventure and agritourism.
This is an area with a cross-border identity. It is located in an environmentally important part of the San Juan River basin and has been the link for economic, social, and cultural relations between the two countries since ancient times. The essence of the territory was generated precisely from the lifestyle of these cross-border families and communities that produce basic grains and tubers, with an important organizational tradition in which women have played a key role. Economically, the interdependence of trade relations is clear, as well as the seasonal migration flows linked to agro-industrial activities.
