2. For the Dance Devotee

Buenos Aires is a proud and passionate city and there is nothing that the people of Buenos Aires are prouder or more passionate about than the tango, the dance born in the working class districts of the city. There is no better place on earth to watch, learn and love the tango; whether it be on the streets of La Boca or at La Ventana’s dinner and show, you’ll be enchanted by the tango and perhaps even learn a step or two.

5. For the History Buff

Argentina’s rich history is reflected and celebrated throughout the city of Buenos Aires. The eclectic architecture reflects the many immigrant influences that have shaped the city, country and culture. And nowhere in the city is this history more alive than at the Recoleta Cemetery. This is a place of true historical importance: it displays some of the best examples of 19^th and 20^th century funerary art and is the resting place of many of Argentina’s most influential figures, including Eva Peron (former First Lady of Argentina and the subject of the musical Evita).
