About Santiago Del Estero Province
Santiago del Estero is an inland province on the semi-arid Gran Chaco plains in northern Argentina. In the northeast corner is Copo National Park, a forested area home to jaguars and giant armadillos. The province is known for the hot springs at Termas de Río Hondo, a resort town on the Dulce River. Downriver is the provincial capital, the city of Santiago del Estero, founded in the 1550s by a Spanish conquistador.
