Every time I come back to Buenos Aires, I fall in love with it a little bit more. Here it’s a short guide to Buenos Aires - 👉 save it for your visit!! 📍Where to Stay in Buenos Aires I 100% recommend staying in Palermo. Both Palermo SoHo and Palermo Hollywood are lively neighborhoods full of trendy bars, boutique shops, and hipster cafes. It’s also one of the safest areas in the city. 👉 Places To Visit in Buenos Aires I will do some other posts entering more in detail but this is a list of my favorite places. 🔸La Boca: Explore colorful Caminito Street and catch a tango show in this vibrant neighborhood. 🔸Recoleta Cemetery: Visit the resting place of Eva Perón and other famous Argentinians, amidst stunning mausoleums. 🔸Teatro Colón: Marvel at one of the world’s most beautiful opera houses, known for its exceptional acoustics. 🔸Puerto Madero: Stroll along the waterfront, dine in upscale restaurants, and visit the iconic Puente de la Mujer. 🔸San Telmo: Wander through cobbled streets, have empanadas at the San Telmo Market, and experience the city’s oldest neighborhood. 🔸Plaza de Mayo: See the historic Casa Rosada, Metropolitan Cathedral, and other landmarks surrounding this central square. 🔸El Ateneo Grand Splendid: Shop for books in one of the world’s most beautiful bookstores, housed in a converted theater. ⌛️Best Time To Visit Buenos Aires The best time to visit Buenos Aires is during the spring (September to November) or fall (March to May). These months offer mild temperatures, beautiful blooming or changing foliage, and fewer crowds. However, I’d say you can visit the city at any time! The weather is not too harsh in any season. #buenosaires #argentina🇦🇷 #argentina #buenosairesargentina #parisofsouthamerica

An opulent and spectacular looking place to be. This theatre is in a magnificent state of preservation. First opened in 1857, and then developed into it's current iteration in 1908, to be launched by a performance of Verdi's Aïda. Such are the remarkable acoustic features of Teatro Colón, it is regarded as right up there with the famous theatres of London, Paris, New York, Vienna and Milan, and included on the circuit of the top tier performers over the years. Aside from the acoustics this theatre fuses architectural styles from a few different European countries, that make this place unmissable if you are into style and history. Italian craftsmen decorated this place lavishly in gold leaf and different types of marble brought over from Europe. There is also a French influence on show, as the 'Gold Room' here is modelled on the Palace of Versailles. I have been to this theatre twice. Once on a guided tour, and another to a classical music performance. The hour long guided tour is so informative and makes you feel like you are stepping back in time. The performance I saw was called 'Liederabend 08' and consisted of an amazing pianist and a male opera singer who effortlessly switched between multiple different tones and languages, executed to perfection. He belted out songs in German (Schubert, Schumann, Strauss), Russian (Rachmaninov, Tchaikovsky), French (Ibert, Gounod, Faure), and Italian (Tosti, Zandonai, Piazzolla). Even if you are not interested in the arts, I can't see anybody being unimpressed with a visit to this striking theatre.
