RESISTENCIA is Chaco Province's sprawling administrative capital, with nearly half a million inhabitants, and the principal gateway to the Gran Chaco. Despite its commercial importance and lack of colonial architecture, the city is a pleasant enough place; it has a feeling of spaciousness about it and is known for the outstanding friendliness of its inhabitants. The city's nickname is "Ciudad de las Esculturas" ("City of Sculptures"), owing to the outdoor statues throughout town; they also inspired the main attraction, the remarkable cultural centre called the Fogón de los Arrieros. In the same vein, plans are being laid to open a special building, the Domo del Centenario (Centenary Dome) to house the Bienal de Escultura, at which sculptors would demonstrate and display their works every two years; the Dome is being built near the Parque 2 de Febrero, and may be worth checking out.
