Buenos Aires is the most elegant and attractive of all South American cities, one that clearly reveals the varied and heterogeneous essence of Argentinehood. Like all cosmopolitan cities it combines tradition and modernism. A noticeable European influence in its architecture and the dressing style of its people, multiculturalism depicted in every corner of the city, a daily and nightly feverish rhythm, and the well-known “porteña” hospitality are some of its main features. It is not by chance that Buenos Aires is considered “the Paris of Latin America”.

Argentina is the third most important economy in Latin America, being the oil, agricultural, manufacture, and mining industries the core of its economic production. Widely known for the sensuality of its national dance, the Tango, other features such as the excellence of its beef, wonderful wines, and the passion for football (soccer) define an important part of the cultural identity of the Argentines.
