Mendoza (locally: [men'dosa]) is the capital of the province of Mendoza in Argentina. It is located in the northern-central part of the province, in a region of foothills and high plains, on the eastern side of the Andes.
The wine, fruit-preserving, and petrochemical industries are important in the city and built-up environs. Rail lines and highways link Mendoza to Argentinaâs principal ports, and the city serves as a gateway to Chile. A major base of the Argentine Air Force is located there.
