Aguilares is a city in the south of the Tucumán Province, Argentina.

Located 85 km (53 mi) south of the provincial capital, San Miguel de Tucumán, the city extends along route 38, and between the Medinas River (in the north) and the Barrientos Creek (in the south).

Like many cities in Argentina, there are many plazas and parks where people enjoy mate.

On special holidays or events, these plazas become the center of celebrations or fairs.

Two important sugar mills (Aguilares and Santa Barbara) and a large footwear factory (Alpargatas SAIC) along with a very dynamic agricultural activity in its surrounding area, account for the city's economic cornerstones.
