The correct way to open Ushuaia at the end of the world

The plane ✈️ landed on time at Ushuaia airport at seven in the morning, with light rain 🌧️ outside the window, and the whole city was shrouded in dark clouds After collecting the luggage 🧳, contact the staff at the TAXi counter at the airport, he will take you outside the airport and arrange a taxi 🚕 for you. The price of taxis in Ushuaia is about the same as UBER in Buenos Aires. The airport is very close to the city center, about a 20-minute drive. After arriving at the hotel to store your luggage, start the mode of walking in the rain Ushuaia is a very quiet and beautiful small town. Its beauty does not come from tourist attractions or landmark buildings, but is inherent, and can be felt anytime, anywhere. There are many port towns in the world, and there are also many towns under the snow mountains 🏔️, but Ushuaia combines both. Under the surrounding snow mountains, colorful 🌈 houses are built along the mountain, extending all the way to the port. The town has a large drop, and there can be tens of meters of altitude within just three or five blocks By noon, the rain gradually stopped, and the small town washed by the rain 🌧️ was exceptionally clean, the ground was spotless, and the fresh air was refreshing. We started climbing from the seaside to the mountainside, and then returned to the seaside from the mountainside, wandering aimlessly, squandering our time to our heart's content, until the sunset, admiring the different postures of the small town in the changing light and shadow, watching the lights of the cruise ships 🛳️ heading to Antarctica light up. This is probably what the fireworks at the end of the world look like, this is probably the correct way to open Ushuaia Of course, it's not that Ushuaia has no attractions. Here, you can enjoy hiking in Tierra del Fuego National Park ⛲️, or take a boat 🚢 to the southernmost lighthouse to see sea lions, seals 🦭, and penguins 🐧. 1️⃣ For Tierra del Fuego, you can choose to join a tour group, or you can buy round-trip bus tickets at the bus station to visit on your own. The group tour takes about half a day. I personally recommend visiting on your own, with ample time to fully experience different sceneries. The ticket ➕ bus fare is about 300 RMB 2️⃣ Take a boat out to sea, there is a row of beautiful little wooden houses at the dock, where they sell boat tickets for going out to sea. There are more lighthouses and sea lions and seals to see, and the ticket price is more than 300 RMB, taking about 2 hours 3️⃣ I will write about these two trips in detail soon Additionally, near the dock, I also saw a blue double-decker sightseeing bus 🚌 that can explore the scenery of the small town from a further distance and more in-depth Exchange rate 💰 Ushuaia has the worst exchange rate of the trip, as of April 2024, 1 US dollar is exchanged for 980 in Buenos Aires, while here it is 1 US dollar for 900 Shopping 🛍️ Shopping in Ushuaia is considered cheap in Argentina. The same souvenirs cost twice as much in El Calafate as they do here Dining 🍴 1️⃣ Perhaps due to the season, I went to the famous Captain's Restaurant twice but did not find whole king crabs 🦀. The king crab at the Chinese restaurant Bamboo was pitifully small and quite expensive 2️⃣ There is an Argentine grilled lamb chop 🍖 restaurant by the sea that I highly recommend. Three whole lamb racks are roasted over an open fire, cut as they cook, and the taste is simply fantastic Accommodation 🏠 Most of the hotels in Ushuaia are concentrated near the seaside, which is very convenient for travel, while most of the homestays are concentrated on the mountainside. Although you need to climb a bit, the view is good, overlooking the harbor, and you can choose according to personal preference Security 👮 Ushuaia has very good security. At eleven or twelve o'clock at night, the streets are still bustling with people, and there is no need to worry about theft or robbery
