'''Tandil''' is the main city of the homonymous [[Partidos of Buenos Aires|partido]] (department), located in Argentina, in the southeast of [[Buenos Aires Province]], just north-northwest of [[Tandilia hills]]. The city was founded in 1823, and its name originates from the ''[[Piedra Movediza]]'' ("Moving Stone") which fell in 1912. The city is the birthplace of many notable sports personalities, as well as former president of Argentina [[Mauricio Macri]].

Tandil is situated approximately midway between [[La Plata]] (the provincial capital), {{convert|330|km|abbr=on}} to its NE, and [[Bahía Blanca]], lying the same distance to its SW; it is also {{convert|160|km|mi}} NW of [[Mar del Plata]], and {{convert|360|km|mi}} SSW of [[Buenos Aires]]. Tandil is in a zone within the [[Pampas]] known as the [[Humid Pampas]].
