With a population of 13 million people, Buenos Aires is Latin America's third largest city and is one of the world's most cosmopolitan cities. Buenos Aires blends arts, fashion, sports, and nightlife to achieve the perfect combination of sophistication and fun. The city has also been described as the "Paris" of South America for its European style and architecture.

European Feel – Buenos Aires is the most European of all Latin American cities. With its wide boulevards, leafy parks, grand buildings and varied culture and nightlife, the city is reminiscent of Paris or Barcelona.

Their culture and cuisine still flavors the city and can be enjoyed in countless art galleries, theatres and museums, as well as fine restaurants.

Transportation is equally affordable with metro and bus trips for little more than a peso and downtown taxi services starting at 6 pesos.
Tango - Buenos Aires is the home of Tango, since the dance and music came bubbling up from the poor southern barrios in the 1870s to be what was at first only the music of the lower classes in Buenos Aires, but very soon after a global phenomenon that is still going stronger than ever today. Without a doubt, Buenos Aires is the best city in the world to experience Tango, in it’s birthplace, whether you want to listen to it, watch it being danced, or dance it yourself.
Futbol (Soccer) – Soccer equals passion in Argentina. If you are in town when the local league is going on, it’s a must to check out a game. The two biggest teams are Boca Juniors & River Plate and the biggest star in the planet to Argentines is Maradona aka known as God in Buenos Aires.
