Destination guide: Buenos Aires

About Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is the capital of the Republic of Argentina and one of the most attractive cities in all of Latin America. Located on the banks of Rio de la Plata on the country's eastern coast, the city is divided into 48 neighborhoods that reflect the enormous cultural diversity of the territory.

Every corner of this city carries its own history, style and tradition which can be traced back to the en masse arrival of European immigrants in the mid-19th century. Its streets are bursting with shows, commerce and entertainment, making it easy to find dancers and tango demonstrations, bookshops, theaters, cinemas and cultural activities in public areas.
