The origin Welsh in Patagonia, you probably have to do with the intention to establish colonies elsewhere in the world, rather remote, so the lack of contact with other cultures conducive to the preservation of one's own.

That is why one of the Patagonia was chosen because of its isolation and the Argentine government's offer to donate 25 acres of land per family on the banks of the Chubut River in exchange for colonizing the region remained unchanged.

For what many immigrants was a disadvantage for this Welsh settlement attractive. Life was hard, was unknown what was the potential of the land and there was a plan of the Argentine government beyond a series of subsidies.

Today, these communities deeply rooted in their ancestral culture and intensely respectful and integrated into our country, are a monument to the courage, perseverance and dreams fulfilled. One example is the city of Gayman.

Gayman is arrested as a people over time, with Welsh chapels of the pioneers, and buildings to enjoy a tea and Welsh cakes. Its streets still retain the water ditches that the trees swept by the Patagonian wind. Ideal for enjoying hours of tea and cakes.
