About this Chilecito map poster
Chilecito is located in the province of La Rioja in northwestern Argentina, in a valley at the foot of the Sierra de Famatina. Its name, meaning "little Chile", refers to Chilean miners who came to work here. On a map, the town is a compact grid of irrigated streets surrounded by arid land and mountains.
Mining shaped the town's history. In the early twentieth century, a cable car system known as the Cablecarril La Mejicana was built to transport ore from the high mines of Famatina down to Chilecito. This long aerial line, now a heritage site, climbed thousands of metres into the mountains.
The valley also produces wine, especially Torrontés, and walnuts, and vineyards appear around the edges of the urban area. A Chilecito map poster shows a clear contrast: a regular grid and cultivated plots on one side, and the empty, rising slopes of the Andes foothills on the other.

Irrigated grid
The town's streets form an even grid of square blocks, kept green by irrigation in an otherwise dry valley.
Famatina foothills
To the west, the mountain slopes rise steeply, and the map quickly becomes empty where roads and houses give way to the range.
