Buenos Aires is a big modern metropolitan city with a population of eleven million. The main tourist attractions here are the wide avenues, the beautiful squares, the nightlife and the excellent restaurants, shops and commercial centers. This cosmopolitan city reflects a mix of European influence, alongside local and cultural elements. Tango is probably the best way to describe the Buenos Aires' spirit. It is danced in parks, squares, and ball rooms.

Argentina borders Chile, Brazil, Uruguay, Bolivia and Paraguay, and is the eighth largest country in the world, second only to Brazil in terms of size and population in South America. The population mix of Argentina is very different from the rest of Latin America as it is mostly European. However, you can still experience "traditional life" in the Northern provinces of Salta and Jujuy. These provinces resemble the Andean nations of Bolivia and Peru and differ culturally from that of the Pampas. Archaeological sites, volcanoes, small Indian villages, and nature reserves can be found in this area.

Argentina's cultural roots are mainly European and that is clearly reflected in its architecture, music, literature and lifestyle. There is an intense cultural activity in Argentina, and it is reflected in festivities, exhibitions, cinema and theatre festivals, and concerts that take place in the main cities. The typical Argentine meals are asado, empanadas, humita, locro, etc. However, due to the important migrating current that populated the country, there exists a varied international cuisine: Spanish, Italian, French, German, Scandinavian, Greek, English, Swedish, Mexican, Basque, Jewish, and Arabian. Also, the quality of its wines and meats is worldly known and the new Argentine cuisine has reached an international level.

Culture, natural beauty, cuisine… Argentina has something to offer you at every corner of the country!
