From its wide tree-lined avenues to its iconic cafes, the Argentine capital offers a sophisticated experience, while at the same time you can get to know it in a relaxed way, getting lost in its streets full of parks, cafes and boutiques of all kinds. 

RECOLETA: BEAUTY AND CULTURE ON EVERY CORNER

Recoleta is the epicenter of Buenos Aires refinement. A tour of the Recoleta Cemetery is an almost mystical experience: among ornate mausoleums and centuries-old sculptures lie key figures of Argentine history, including the great Eva Perón. A few steps away, the National Museum of Fine Arts exhibits an enviable collection ranging from El Greco to Kandinsky, including an exquisite selection of Argentine art.

DESIGN, HAUTE CUISINE AND NATURE

It is synonymous with avant-garde, diversity of proposals and sophistication. In the heart of Palermo Soho, the boutiques of emerging designers offer unique pieces that fuse craftsmanship with modernity. It is the ideal neighborhood for those looking for fashion and trend-setting design objects.

The gastronomic offer in this area is unparalleled. For an innovative experience, Tegui, with its tasting menu, surprises with dishes that reinterpret the Argentine tradition with contemporary techniques. Recommendation: avoid the most popular restaurants and grills that all the media talk about: there is a wide variety of restaurants in the Palermo area and its surroundings, with gourmet proposals and premium meats, for the most exquisite palates.

MODERNITY AND EXCLUSIVITY

This neighborhood is the most contemporary face of Buenos Aires. With its avant-garde architecture, renovated old port buildings and riverside promenades, it is the ideal place for those seeking a high-level urban experience. For wellness lovers, Faena Spa offers holistic treatments in a dreamlike setting.

BY NIGHT

From mainstream and off theater, to a wide variety of musical shows and nightclubs, the night in Buenos Aires is made to be fully enjoyed. Porteños usually have dinner no earlier than 9 p.m., so evenings with drinks, friends and couples usually extend well past midnight
