Buenos Aires
The city's reputation as a hotbed for design, combined with a vast cultural heritage, make this Argentine capital one of the world's most exciting places. Swathed in a European cloak, Buenos Aires has emerged as a distinct city of varied barrios. Stylish artists fill the cafes of Palermo, while Recoleta is an enclave for the upper class, with gorgeous Parisian architecture and a storied cemetery. The cobbled streets of San Telmo feature colonial buildings that hum with a history of staggering romance and unbridled charm. Experience the tantalizing taste of a glass of Torrontes wine or the drama of a tango dance on a South American journey.
