Reduccion de Nuestra Señora de Santa Ana, or simply Santa Ana, is one of the missions (also called reductions) of Jesuit missionaries built during the Spanish colonial period. It is one of the early Jesuit missions in Argentina and Brazil that were collectively inscribed as World Heritage Sites in 1984.

Santa Ana is located in Candelaria Department, Misiones Province, Argentina. It is about 2 km from the department administrative centre and not far from the ruins of San Ignacio Mini.

Visiting Nuestra Señora de Santa Ana

Your base for visiting this World Heritage Site is Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. You should find your accommodation in Buenos Aires, and then get your hotel to help you make arrangements for visiting the sights in Argentina. I recommend that you base yourself in Buenos Aires rather than a smaller Argentine city, as you will have more options here. There will be plenty of tour packages to choose from, according to the amount of time you have in your hands.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
