Few cities in South America share the ambiance and lifestyle that make Buenos Aires so endearing. From the Plaza de Mayo to the milongas along San Telmo's cobbled streets, Buenos Aires is rife with historical and cultural sites for the curious mind. The cosmopolitan capital of Argentina lies on the western shore of the Rio de la Plata estuary. The combination of modern skyscrapers and colonial structures blends the country's past and present in a way that calls out to the adventurer with a thirst for knowledge. In the Plaza de Mayo you find a dotting of tropical palm trees amid old streets and buildings. The plaza holds much history as the site of the city's foundation in 1580, the backdrop for the revolution of independence, and the scene of the latest political rallies. At the heart of this historical site lies Casa Rosada, the Argentinian equivalent of the White House, but pink. It's more than a novelty sight. It's a symbol of the executive branch of government that leads the republic. Casa Rosada is best known as the location where famous first lady Evita Peron addressed the crowds. A trip to Buenos Aires must include a visit to Recoleta Cemetery, the resting grounds of the powerful, rich, and famous. Stone paths lined with extravagant grave markers and aboveground tombs make it a celebration of the legacies that live on long after one is gone. Dive deep into Argentinian culture by joining an asado, a barbecue. As you indulge in the rich flavors of Argentinian steak and Malbec, you will come to understand and appreciate the culture's finer points. ... Read More
