I felt something very strange seeing my city through the eyes of a foreigner. Streets and places I walk through almost daily look different from the perspective of someone who doesn't live here. I had never experienced something like this before. I am very grateful for your video. I hope you enjoyed your stay here. Sending you a big hug and thank you for showcasing my city. Many foreigners make content talking about "Argentina" but they actually refer to Buenos Aires, and the truth is it's like a separate country. The rest of the provinces have nothing in common with the capital, neither the accent nor the customs. Thank you again for showing that Argentina is not just Buenos Aires
Thanks for your nice message. I love both cities, but yes, they feel very different. This is often the case with capital cities and the rest of the country, especially when the capital city is much larger than any other city in the country.
Dude, I enjoyed your personalized tour of Cordoba. I think you did an awesome job showing the highlights of the city, making the video entertaining and giving us your firsthand opinions. I'm from the US, I have been to the beautiful city of Buenos Aires, but never to Cordoba.
Thanks for that. I love Buenos Aires too. Cordoba offers a more condensed, personal experience. I enjoy being able to see it all on foot. I'm sure you'll love it too.
@@RichardArthurYT if u come i have a sail boat in carlos paz and it will be a pleasure to invite u mate ;) and u can help me practising my english haha
Muy buen video!!!¡¡¡ Gracias por mostrar nuestra amada ciudad de Córdoba de la Nueva Andalucía!!! ¡¡¡ Son todos bienvenidos a conocerla cuando quieran !!!!🙂👍
@@mariajulitacaro5086 Si , es en Argentina. El nombre completo de la ciudad es Córdoba de la Nueva Andalucía porqué su fundador , Don Jerónimo Luis de Cabrera, la fundó así en honor a su esposa, Doña Luisa Martel de los Rios , que su familia era originaria de esta ciudad española
Hello mate! I really liked the video, as I certainly enjoy strolling around Córdoba's streets. I just wanted to tell you that calling La Cañada a drainage canal is... somewhat disheartening. It's originally a natural stream that feeds into the Suquía river, and while it may seem like just a gentle shallow stream of water, it's not uncommon to see it fill to the brim on summer's rain season. This is actually the second construction of La Cañada, made mainly by croatian immigrant workers during the early 40s. La Vieja Cañada predates it by 3 centuries, and it's given birth to numerous songs and legends. Sorry if it seems like I'm infodumping, but just wanted to add up on the great video and share about one of the "joyitas" that I so much love about my city. Keep it up and all the best for you in your travels!
Thank you for that. I'm happy to be corrected. I'm just a tourist, so I don't know much. A few locals told me it wasn't a river, just a drainage canal. But it's beautiful either way!
@@RichardArthurYT el arroyo de la cañada hizo estragos en la ciudad en varias ocaciones, provocó que la ciudad se tuvo que levantar casi 2 metros de la ubicación original allá por 1700 y en 1890 causó 200 muertes, antes de ser construida la cañada era normal que provocara inundaciones terribles. No es un canal de drenaje, es un arroyo que nace a unos km fuera de la ciudad en la lagunilla, cerca de Malagueño.
First impression I got from your video was ...WOW, you sure are great at walking (or should I say, jogging !). You did walk an awful lot of blocks at a fast pace without even stopping for a moment to catch your breath ! I was amazed as I watched you do it. I live in Cordoba, but I never walked so many blocks without taking a break. It's easy to see you know quite well the central area of this large, confusing city, so congrats for that feat. One thing that I'd like to add to your otherwise fairly true account is that people of Italian or German descent aren't the only large European communities in Argentina. I belong to the lively bunch of Irish descendants toasting with Irish beer every March 17th (Saint Patrick's Day) a date that is also noisely celebrated too by most of the Argie youth, even though their ancestors came from some other countries. The Scots and Welsh are also numerous in certain parts of the country. That being said, I wish you the best possible stay amongst us Cordobeans ! Take care.
Hermoso recorrido!!!! Gracias por eso. Mostraste de lejos el teatro del Libertador Gral. San Martin, el teatro lírico más antiguo del país, luego está el Colón de Bs As. Es un poco más chico, pero de igual belleza en su arquitectura y acústica. Un ícono cultural en Córdoba.
Muchas gracias Richard por describir tan bien al cordobes y su idiosincracia. Y sì, tenes razòn es la ciudad màs linda del paìs, donde le gustaria vivir a muchìsimas personas. Sos el mejor turista que conociò y conoce a mi Còrdoba amada al detalle. Espero que regreses otra vez. Un abrazo grande de un cordobes.
28:28 Inaugurated on November 4, 1909, the building was originally the Boys' Higher School and later became the Olmos School (or José Vicente de Olmos). The project was commissioned by Governor Olmos in 1906 and built by the Province itself. Under the supervision of architect Elías Senestrari, the institution was named after the governor, who had passed away by the time the construction was completed.
In general, Argentina is a very beautiful country. We can compare one city with another, but we cannot deny the beauty of one or the other. Wherever you go, there is a charm that characterizes each city. On the other hand, if we look for the opposite, such as very precarious places with poverty to highlight, there are also those. From what I know, I can only speak for my country, Argentina, and the city where I live now, New York City.
Hello friend, magnificent first-person tour of the city of Córdoba, very good, I enjoyed it a lot, although I would make a suggestion, the title should say..."Córdoba, my favorite city in Latin America"..in To better locate the video , you will get some tips to get more views. Great tour Richard.
Amazing! It's amazing how much you like my city! To think that many are thinking about leaving here wile others like you enjoy it so much! Thanks you and that's why I answer you in your language...the least I can do. Welcome to Córdoba Argentina! 🇦🇷😎👍
Excellent video and completely agree that this is my favorite city in the world as well, funny enough you started the video in the entrance of my own home in Cordoba, I didn't have to guess where you were.😄
Wonderful video! I'm glad you're enjoying your staying! But careful with your phone/camera my friend, specially on the zone you're walking in the introduction of the video.
Es la segunda ciudad mas importante y tambien la mas habitada del pais,muy bella la docta cordoba pero la ciudad es gigante falta mucho por mostrar aca solo se muestra un 30%
no muestra ni el 10% de cordoba. mostro gran parte de lo mas conocido de la zona centrica. esta bien el recorrido que hizo pero tenes docientos miles de barrios y lugares mas . la ciudad es muy grande
@@pilho1 me referia un 30% de lo centrico y las partes mas concurrentes solo eso,no me referia a los barrios de la ciudad porque es gigante si fuese asi seria mucho mas obvio con respecto al centro y nueva cordoba falta por mostrar bastante lo que es mas vistoso y turistico!
Coincido en que le falta buena gastronomía, sobretodo si andas por el centro, hay lugares específicos que sabés que vas a comer bien, pero muchas veces están en los barrios. Parrillas creo que Alcorta (en la Cañada) porque como dijiste, hay mucha noche, mucha reunión familiar y turismo local, los asados se hacen en casa o "en el río" (⚠️ lugares habilitados porque es zona de incendios) Los locales no queremos pagar por algo que hacemos en casa 😅. Se vende lo que más se pide: lomitos, choripan, empanadas, pizzas. Sino comida japonesa, china, peruana, etc. Poca comida tradicional, porque la hacemos en casa o en fechas patrias
The Jesuits had the monopoly of mule supply. Lucrative business in those times, having the huge trade route between the Viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata and the Viceroyalty of Peru. You can check this finding the Jesuits missions locations.
I am from the Province of Córdoba, 110 km from the capital in the heart of the Pampas plain, the last time I went to Córdoba almost 2 years ago I found the city very dirty, the garbage collectors were on strike and since there were no containers, the dogs broke the bags and scattered the garbage, it would be necessary to organize that better, other things I saw were the poorly maintained sidewalks and streets, there are cities and towns in Córdoba better maintained than the Capital
Much cleaner and without all the homeless or drug addicts and sketchy people that you see everywhere in the centers of large european cities. I live in BA and I was in Rome, Berlin, Paris, Brussels etc and I was shocked at how dirty and kind of decadent they felt in some central areas..I guess it is normal that cities go through periods like that and then bounce back.
I am from that city, I am glad you like it, I find it to be a rather "cold" city, really not much going on, I dream to visit London one day, cheers friend
You really need to hit the other cities of cordoba, brother. Villa Carlos Paz, Villa General Belgrano, La Cumbrecita, La falda. That's what Cordoba's about.
Hablas mucho de moderno y antiguo o tradicional. Lo tradicional no debe perder un país, sino no tendría identidad. Aquí somos de conservar la familia, eso no es precisamente algo antiguo, sino conservar los valores humanos y no deshumanizarnos como sociedad.
Soy cordobés. Es broma? Tiene una parte cosmopolita y bella. Pero en general es una ciudad con una música de porquería, gente progre o conservadora en extremo, mucho calor o mucho frío, tonada horrible.
My brother was walking down A downtown street filming himself, brother, this is Latin America, a motorcycle passes by and takes off your socks walking. Don't be idiots, this is not Switzerland, be very careful.
No, downtown is complete dirty, is horrible.....has a lot af monuments, but is insecure.....the best in Córdoba is Traslasierra, Calamuchita,Valley.....in Cba city,people is uneducated.....horrible city.
Creo que la ciudad ha desmejorado mucho, pero por la misma gente, típico de ciudad grande. Antes estaba más descuidada, pero las personas eran educadas y no había tantos indigentes, (muchas veces están drogados, alterados, se ponen intensos y ocupan veredas como si fuera su casa). Ahora creo que los parques y peatonales están mejores, hay muchos museos, parques, ferias, eventos y cosas lindas para ver, pero las personas andan más en su mundo y alteradas, pero también hay gente buena onda (más si lo sacas de su burbuja) Le falta mucho por mejorar, pero creo que está lejos de ser "horrible"
