		The Chubut valley in Patagonia, Argentina forms the heart of the Chubut Province, the third largest province of Argentina.
		In the 1880s a railway was built along the valley to facilitate the movement of wheat to the port of Puerto Madryn (originally Porth Madryn, named after a place in Arfon, Wales) on the Golf Nuevo on the southern side of Peninsula Valdés, now a well-known spot for tourists to see marine mammals.
		Over the years use of the Welsh language has declined, although there is still contact with Wales, from where teachers are sent to assist in keeping the language alive, and there is some social cachet in knowing the language—even among people who are not of Welsh ancestry.
