Buenos Aires
Why Go?
Whip together a beautiful metropolis with gourmet cuisine, awesome shopping and fren-
zied nightlife - and you get Buenos Aires. It's a rough-hewn mix of Paris' architecture,
Rome's traffic and Madrid's late-night hours, all spiked with Latin American flavor. BA is
cosmopolitan, seductive, emotional, frustrating and chock-full of attitude, and there's no
other place like it in the world. Seek out classic BA: the old-world cafes, colonial architec-
ture, curious markets and diverse communities. Rub shoulders with Evita at Recoleta's
famous cemetery, fill your belly with luscious steaks, dance the sultry tango and take in a
crazy
fútbol
(soccer) match. Unforgettable adventures? You'd better believe it.
Everyone knows someone who has been here and raved about it. You've put it off long
enough. Come to BA and you'll understand why so many people have fallen in love with
this amazing city. There's a good chance you'll be one of them.
