Welsh tearooms popular in Patagonia

Welsh tearooms are somewhat of a phenomenon in parts of Patagonia, Argentina.

During the 19th and early 20th Century, emigrants from Wales settled in the region, hoping to create a haven for their language, culture and faith.

Today, the town of Gaiman in the east is where the link with Wales is at its most visible as homes and businesses display Welsh names and flags.

Ana Chiabrando Rees's family started the first Welsh tearoom in the town in 1944 and more have sprung up.

She explains more to BBC Wales' Steffan Messenger as part of a series of reports from Patagonia which is marking the 150th anniversary since around 160 Welsh emigrants arrived in Argentina aboard the Mimosa tea clipper.
