About El Sur del Sur (The Southern South)

El Sur del Sur: Argentina, the Country, its Culture and its People is the first site with information about Argentina on the Internet. It was founded in 1996 by Mario E. Farber and Irene N.

In 1998 the Ministry of Culture of the Nation, according to Resolution No. 730, resolved to declare the Internet Website of Cultural Interest: “El Sur del Sur: Argentina, the country, its culture, and its people”, referring to the excellence of its contents.

Surdelsur.com is a site from Argentina made by Argentines passionate about their country. Its fundamental objective is to make Argentina, the Country, its People, and its Culture, known inside and outside the national territory.
