Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, is known for its European-style architecture, tango culture, and neighborhoods like San Telmo, La Boca, and Recoleta. Key sights include Plaza de Mayo, Teatro Colón, and the Recoleta Cemetery. The local currency is the Argentine peso (ARS), and while card payments are accepted in many places, cash is still widely used—especially for small purchases. Prices can be low by international standards, though inflation causes frequent changes. The climate is temperate, with hot, humid summers and mild winters, making spring and autumn the most comfortable times to visit.
