Finca Los Alamos
Finca Los Alamos is a historical Argentine estancia located in San Rafael, Mendoza. The estate was built in 1830 by the Bombal family, and originally served as a frontier fort. Domingo Bombal, who served eleven terms as Governor to the Mendoza Province (between 1863–1890), owned the estate until his death in 1908.〔Finca Los Alamos. The Grapevine.

After decades of neglect, the property was revived by Argentine writer Susana Bombal in the 1930s.〔Rozzo, Mark. On the Argentine Wine Route. Nov/Dec issue; Departures Magazine. Retrieved on November 5, 2008 from http://www.departures.com/articles/on-the-argentine-wine-route〕 Susana brought touches of Buenos Aires sophistication to the newly restored property, including colonial furniture, original manuscripts and mural paintings.〔Retrieved on November 5, 2008 from http://www.welcomeargentina.com/estancias/cuyo_i.html〕 She was friends with a number of bohemian artists from the 1930s-60s who made the retreat to Finca Los Alamos, south of Mendoza. Each visiting artist added special touches that remain today, making the property a museum of sorts, and truly unique. Susana, who shared a profound friendship with author and poet Jorge Luis Borges,〔Larregle, Daniela. El amor secreto de Borges con una mendocina. December 23, 2001. Los Andes Online. Retrieved on November 5, 2008 from http://www.losandesinternet.com.ar/notas/2001/12/23/sociedad-29480.asp〕 owned the property until 1992.〔Retrieved on November 5, 2008 from http://www.lavozdeasturias.es/noticias/noticia.asp?pkid=42153〕 The property features original works of art and culture from many famous Argentinean figures including Borges, Raúl Soldi, Hector Basaldua, and Manuel Mujica Láinez.
The estate, which now serves as a boutique hotel, is still owned by the Bombal family, who also run the hotel.

The property includes ''El Laberinto de Borges'' (Borges Memorial Maze), a garden labyrinth planted in 2003, which consists of approximately 12,000 English Boxwood shrubs. The box hedge maze measures by , and was designed by Randoll Coate,〔Sancho, Teresita. Un laberinto recordara a Borges en el Sur. April 3, 2003. Los Andes Online. Retrieved on November 6, 2008 from http://www.losandesinternet.com.ar/notas/2003/4/3/sociedad-67379.asp〕 a British diplomat, maze designer, and "labyrinthologist". The maze pays tribute to Jorge Luis Borges (also a personal friend of Coate's) and may have been inspired by Borges' short stories ''El Jardin de senderos que se bifurcan'' (The Garden of Forking Paths), and Labyrinths. Shaped like an open book, the design spells out Borges' name as reflected in a mirror, and also pays tribute to writer Maria Kodama, Jorge's widow, by including her initials.
