Hi from someone born in a little town in the Patagonian desert! One little correction: at the beginning of the video you state that Patagonia is limited to the north by the Pampas. While that is correct, there is another region bordering northern Patagonia and that is the region of Cuyo, which is very much unknown as a region outside of Argentina but does have an internationally famous location: Mendoza and its wine region.
Perhaps you could make a video about the Cuyo region in the future to help make it more well known internationally. Some of its characteristics are:
-It's a warm desertic region.
-There the Andes reach their highest altitudes. Mount Aconcagua, the highest peak outside of the Himalayas, is located there.
-Though there are some large rivers, the region also presents many temporary, endorheic rivers and river basins.
-There is a disctinct type of wind called the Zonda, which is a fast, dry, dusty and hot wind that can rush down from the Andes on certain days and quickly rise the temperature. The Zonda can be dangerous for vulnerable people like old people or people with respiratory afflictions.

Last year I visited Patagonia, specifically Ushuaia and its outskirts in Tierra del Fuego. I have been to the fjords of Norway and the rainforests of Brazil, and I just have to say that I had never seen such beautiful and magnificent landscapes like the ones from Patagonia. True nature, untouched by humankind, where you can feel the power of wilderness. This is truly a magical and holy land we must protect at all costs. Viva la Patagonia y viva AmƩrica del Sur!!!

After watching the Top gear UK's Patagonia special and the Bolivia special, I have never been this fascinated by a continent. The Patagonian region, the Atacama, Tierra del Fuego, the Andes, the La pas, The Ushuaia. What a beautiful continent ā„ļø Thank you Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James may for this!

Hi: born in Argentina 69 years ago, I should say that in no more than 8 minutes, this is one of the best briefs ever made of my country. I understand that our sad present canĀ“t be easily understood to the rest of the world, but I'll try to explain it in few words: the lowest moral, patriotism and capability quality of the people that governed the country throughout the history. Something that happened since it was part of the viceroyalty of the RĆo de la Plata, continued after the independence in 1816, and was getting worse the last hundred years. With this kind of corrupted people ruling the nation, Argentina will never stop being a big country, to become a great country. Thanks. Adrian K. Bs. As.

Even though its a good video overall,. there are some things that I would like to clarify. First of all, most of the tourism industry income in Chile does not come from the lake district, but from the southern portion of Patagonia, which gets the biggest amount of international visitors, in contrast to Argentina which sees a big amount of international visitors in the provinces of Rio Negro and Neuquen, which are in the northern part of Patagonia. Also on the chilean side, most of what is named here as "the lake district" is not really considered patagonia, but instead it is from the Vicente Perez Rosales NP that patagonia begins to the south. In argentina there are provinces much closer to the equator that are considered part of patagonia, but in Chile are barely considered part of the central zone because the climate is none of the described in the video, but more of a mediterranean climate. Finally, pudu's actually live in the northern part of patagonian forests, and only inhabit the northern tip of the fjords area.

One of the most geographically interesting places in the world, imo. There is so much untapped wilderness, that despite the harsh climate, are some of the most beautiful. Maybe I will move to Ushuaia one day.
