    Luján is a peaceful town located about 70 kilometres west of Buenos Aires, known for its colonial charm and strong sense of community. It’s home to the stunning Basilica of Our Lady of Luján, one of Argentina’s most important pilgrimage sites.

With easy transport links to Buenos Aires, Luján offers the perfect mix of tranquillity and accessibility.
