Argentina - Buenos Aires

Despite a past littered with military rule and economic disasters, Buenos Aires is starting to get back on its feet.  Most of the modern heartland has one foot firmly in the 21st century: designers and tango, overpaid football players and high-end steak restaurants, cocktails and an outgoing social scene are all highlights.

San Telmo is perhaps Buenos Aires must see district, with its colorful Spanish architecture and streets that crowd with arts and crafts every evening, while the square turns into a huge tuneful tango session night after night.

La Boca is one of the most popular in town. Tourists come here to stroll along the pedestrian streets and street performances to attend. Here you’ll find the famous tango Stada. Main street Caminito is the tourist center of La Boca. It is valued for its colorful houses, souvenirs and art objects which are sold here.

La Recoleta Cemetery- you'll see graves of some of the most important people in Argentinean history. Presidents, scientist, lawyers have been buried there. The most famous grave is that of Eva Peron. Whole cemetery consists of mausoleums. Each mausoleum has the family name engraved into the marble and brass plaques are added to the front with the details of family members. Interesting that no birth date are engraved. Evita Peron's body is buried in the Duarte tomb. Her body had been stolen a couple of times and extreme measures have been taken to secure the tomb.

Evita Museum - run by her grandniece Cristina. Building in which museum is housed was originally used as a temporary home for women and children in 1948 and the structure is seen as a historical monument. Tourists come here to learn more about Evita Peron, the permanent exhibition can admire photos, personal objects, documents, press articles and other exhibits.

Casa Rosada - dating from 1873, built on the foundations of other structures. It’s government headquarters today. Besides massive architecture specific to the 19th century, building is interesting for its pink color.

Main Catholic church - in downtown is a mixture of architectural styles, with a neo-classical facade, and a 19th century domn. Built, demolished and rebuilt several times over the centuries, is today a symbol of the city.

Obelisk - the place where various cultural events are organized. Built in 1936, to celebrate four centuries since the foundation of the city, it was placed in the Plaza of the Republic, with a height of 67m, one of the most interesting monuments of modern South America.
