(Report Problem)I love Buenos Aires!
What a great capital city: here you`ll find, history (San Telmo, La Boca,May Square)great restaurants with all kinds of cuisines (Puerto Madero or Palermo)friendly people,great tango shows (Piazzolla and Esquina Gardel)and to make a city tour is a must. It`s incredible how architecture changes as you go through La Boca, San Telmo and Recoleta , for example.Good weather,friendly people at bars & cafès, the best meat & wine. In a word a city to enjoy the 24 hours . And besides it`s cheap!!!-

(Report Problem)Amazing Experience
What an amazing place and people. For the price there is nothing even comparable to Buenos Aires. Fantastic day and night life, beautiful parks and world class food (stand outs are Italian restaurants and Argentine beef). "B.A." is my new favorite city.

(Report Problem)The Paris of the South? I thought Paris was the Buenos Aires of the North!
Buenos Aires is an incomparable city, and has the unique quality of combining European-style elegance with the intangible vibrance of a Latin American city. Price-wise, great values are to be had throughout the city for those who would seek them out. The cuisine is somewhat limited, but what Argentinians do, they do better than anyone else. The public transportation system is cheap and efficient (pick up a Guia "T" de Bolsillo for 2 pesos at a newsstand) and will quickly whisk you almost anywhere you'd like to go. Driving can be touch and go...the Porteños have their own rules and style. I would not venture to drive there myself, but a ride in a taxi can be *quite* an adventure! The architecture is lovely, and there are many notable historical sites throughout the city. Because of the economic crisis in 2001, Buenos Aires is now a real bargain for anyone with US $...the economy has, for the time being, stabilized and is growing rapidly, but the exchange rate remains roughly $2.90 to the US $1 (as of this writing, 2/11/2005). Of course, you can't miss the unforgettable tango, because it is Buenos Aires, and NOT Paris (!) that is its home. Although crime has increased over the past few years, for anyone with a touch of common sense, Buenos Aires is as safe as, and in my opinion much safer than, many cities in the US and Europe. The most interesting areas for tourists, and the places you'd probably want to stay, are Retiro, Recoleta, Palermo, San Telmo, or Puerto Madero, although I highly recommend visits into some of the less famous neighborhoods to get a real taste of everyday life in Buenos Aires. Los Inmortales has great pizza, La Estancia has great parrillada and steak, there is fine Italian food throughout the city, and you just have to try some ice cream...it's second to none! A visit to the cemetery in Recoleta should not be missed, and the San Telmo, Chacarita, and Recoleta fairs hold myriad great values for shoppers. Porteños in general, and especially in the less-busy neighborhoods, are gregarious, friendly, and accommodating, and many speak English quite well...but I would also recommend that you learn some Spanish if you don't already know it...it is the language there, after all! All in all, Buenos Aires is by far my favorite place to be, and if you travel there, eat a bife for me!
