HISTORIC BA TANGO BA ELEGANT BA The street corners, public squares and buildings of the San Nicolás and Monserrat neighborhoods are saturated with the city’s history. From the mythical Plaza de Mayo, you can see the Casa Rosada (House of Government), the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Cabildo. At the end of Diagonal Sur, the Obelisk gives way to the Corrientes and 9 de Julio Avenues, a classic postcard image of the city. Nearby is the imposing Colon Theater, one of the ten best opera houses in the world, renowned for its acoustics and the artistic value of its building. On Corrientes Avenue, the night vibrates between the marquees of the theaters, record and bookstores and many options to enjoy a tasty meal. In the neighborhoods of La Boca, San Telmo and Balvanera, discover the feeling of the city’s outskirts. The Riachuelo River, with the old Avellaneda Bridge and the Caminito street fair reflect the roughness of the port, just as the artist Quinquela Martin painted it in the early twentieth century. Moving toward the city center, the majestic Bombonera stadium of Boca Juniors football team interrupts the landscape of low houses. Past Lezama Park is Plaza Dorrego, at the heart of San Telmo, famous for its Sunday antiques fair. Going deeper into the city, you reach the Abasto, a mythical neighborhood and home to the tango singer Carlos Gardel. There, you can visit the passageway, monument and museum dedicated to this tango legend. There is no better way to understand why Buenos Aires is nicknamed “the Paris of South America” than a stroll through the neighborhoods of Retiro and Recoleta. From the San Martin Square you can see the Kavanagh, a rationalist-style building declared World Heritage Architecture Site by UNESCO. On Alvear Avenue, you can see emblematic works of neoclassicism and art nouveau, including mansions and stately homes, and luxury hotels. At the end of this street are the public square Plaza Francia; the Basilica of Our Lady of Pilar and Recoleta Cementary, a national landmark that houses famous vaults and mausoleums. 19 MICE Tourism Guide of the City of Buenos Aires Discover Buenos Aires BUENOS AIRES IN 24 OR 48 HOURS MODERN BA SIGNATURE BA PAPAL CIRCUIT In Puerto Madero, the old docks of red bricks were converted into modern office buildings, alongside cuttingedge design complexes. In this neighborhood, water and women are the protagonists; among its monuments is the Fountain of the Nereids, by the sculptor Lola Mora, and the Bridge of the Woman, designed by architect Santiago Calatrava. At Dock 3, you can visit the Frigate Sarmiento, now a museum. Art also takes place along these river banks. Faena Arts Center, built in the former engine room of a mill, offers a program of experimental and international exhibits; the Fortabat Art Collection, showcases jewels from artists like Breughel, Turner and Warhol. For a relaxing, outdoor option, the Costanera Sur Ecological Reserve is a protected area where numerous plant and animal species are preserved. Palermo’s unique and original style distinguishes it from the rest of the city. The neighborhood has an aristocratic side, known as Palermo Chico, delimited by Ave. Del Libertador and a densely wooded area and park. On Sarmiento Avenue is the Planetarium Galileo Galillei, where visitors can see about 8,900 stars, planets and satellites of the universe in the hemispherical projection theater. On Ave. Del Libertador, you can enjoy traditional equestrian culture at the Argentine Polo Field and Palermo Race Track. Around Cortázar Square is the area of Palermo Viejo, where designers of clothing, furniture and objects display their production. Between the avenues Juan B. Justo, Santa Fe, Cordoba and Dorrego, there is a gastronomic center. The area is nicknamed Palermo Hollywood for the high concentration of television and film producers. Flores is the neighborhood that gave birth to His Holiness Francis, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio, in 1936. Here he worked to help those who were the neediest. Every Thursday, around 3pm, a walking tour leaves from the San José de Flores Church (6950 Rivadavia Avenue) and visits the places that were part of his history.
