Geography of Argentina - Antipodes

Antipodes

Argentina is largely antipodal to central and coastal China, the exceptions being the north bordering Paraguay and the area around Buenos Aires, which are opposite ocean, including the coast down to Bahía Blanca, which is close to antipodal with the Chinese port of Tianjin. Large Chinese cities antipodal to Argentina are Canton and Hong Kong (with the northwest corner), Amoy and Fuzhou (near the border with Paraguay), Shanghai (near the border with Uruguay), Hangzhou, the wartime capital of Nanjing (not far from Rosario), Changsha, Nanchang, Wuhan, Taiyuan, Jinan, Qingdao, and the capital Beijing (inland from Viedma). Taipei, the capital of ROC Taiwan, is antipodal to Argentina near the Paraguayan border. Central Patagonia is largely antipodal with Mongolia, and its southern end and Tierra del Fuego with Russia in southern Siberia.
