Ushuaia is the capital of Tierra del Fuego, Antartida e Islas del Atlantico Sur Province, Argentina. It is commonly regarded as the southernmost city in the world.
Ushuaia is located in a wide bay on the southern coast of Isla Grande de Tierra del Fuego, bounded on the north by the Martial mountain range, and on the south by the Beagle Channel.
It is the only municipality in the Department of Ushuaia, which has an area of 9,390 km2 (3,625 sq mi). It was founded October 12 of 1884 by Augusto Lasserre and is located on the shores of the Beagle Channel surrounded by the mountain range of the Martial Glacier, in the Bay of Ushuaia.
Besides being an administrative center, it is a light industrial port and tourist hub. (Resource Wikipedia).
