Patagonia’s Chocolate Capital
By Linda Tancs
Commonly called Bariloche, San Carlos de Bariloche is a town in Argentina’s Patagonia region. It borders Nahuel Huapi, a large glacial lake surrounded by the Andes Mountains. Bariloche is known for its Swiss alpine-style architecture and its chocolate. In fact, in 2015 it was declared the national capital of chocolate. An annual festival takes place around this time of year, featuring various activities like chocolate-making workshops, tastings and displays of large chocolate sculptures, including record-breaking ones like the longest chocolate bar.
