		On arriving in the city of Gaiman, some 17 kilometers west of Trelew, early in the morning, the traveler will undoubtedly notice a strong fragrance of newly baked bread and will ecstatically surrender to a fairy-tale picture of typical brick and stone buildings framed in a deep blue sky.
		Parks and gardens; quiet streets with little traffic; the river, wandering through the city and leading one into a dream landscape of thickly wooded stands of red-gold foliage, inviting the visitor to walk and learn about the ancient culture and traditions of the original inhabitants, that remain and are followed from time immemorial.
		Gaiman preserves an immaculate devotion to the arts; it is therefore not surprising that it has originated the highest expressions of choral singing as well as many poets, musicians and writers.

	Lady Di and Welsh traditions in Gaiman - PATAGONIA-ARGENTINA.COM
		Gaiman is one of the towns that was founded by the Welsh settlers of the coast of Patagonia at the end of the 19th century.

		These small gestures displayed her sympathy and love for the people, and gave birth to a new tradition that is yet another reason to visit Gaiman, a small Welsh village in Patagonia, that awaits you nearby the whales and penguins.

		In Gaiman, I picked up a pamphlet with a first-hand account of the immigration to Patagonia written circa 1890 by William Hugh Williams.
