Rosario


Rosario is the largest city of the province of Santa Fe, Argentina. It is located 300 km northwest of Buenos Aires, on the western shore of the Paraná River.
Rosario-Victoria bridgeOcean steamers reach the city via the Paraná River, which allows the existence of a 34-feet deep port. Exports include wheat, flour, hay, linseed and other vegetable oils, corn, sugar, lumber, meats, hides, and wool. Manufactures include flour, sugar, meat products, and other foodstuffs. A bridge running over the Paraná River to connect Rosario with the city of Victoria across the Paraná Delta was opened in 2003.
Along the Paraná River, Rosario is one of the fewest Argentine cities that cannot point to a particular individual as its founder. The city's patron is the Virgin of the Rosario (feast day October 7).
