Foz do Iguazu

Foz do Iguazu

At the border with Brazil you'll find the most beautiful waterfalls of the world.

The Iguazu Falls are waterfalls of the Iguassu River located on the border of the Brazilian state of Paraná (in the Southern Region) and the Argentinian Province of Misiones.

Most of the falls are within Argentinian territory, but from the Brazilian side a more panoramic view is obtained. They will take your breath away. An absolute wonder of nature

La Bocaaaaaaaaaaaa

La Boca is Buenos Aires most colourful barrio (neighbourhood). It was build by Italian immigrants along the Riachuelo, a sinuous waterway lined with meat packing plants and warehouses. "El Caminito", made famous by tango legend Carlos Gardel, is a must see when you travel to Argentina even if you're not a tango aficionado.

Note: I hope I don't disappoint you if I tell you that tango is absolutely not popular in Argentina (the youngsters want something more dynamic to move their feet on). There is a TV channel broadcasting tango related shows only. I invite you to visit my Tango Page for more detailed info about the music and the legacy of Astor Piazzolla.

La Casa Rosada

Buenos Aires is the vibrant capital of Argentina. It emits more the feeling of a Southern European city which is no surprise as the roots of many "porteños" (citizens of Buenos Aires city) are from the 'Old World'. Many parks make up for the busy streets and let you enjoy the museums, restaurants and splendid monuments that surrounds them.

Plaza de Mayo is the heart of Buenos Aires. There you'll find important landmarks such as the historical Cabildo (the city council during the colonial era), the Metropolitan Cathedral of Buenos Aires, the town hall and La Casa Rosada.

La Casa Rosada (The Pink House), officially known as the Palacio de Gobierno (Government Palace), is the official seat of the Executive Branch of the government of Argentina. Plaza de Mayo has been a silent witness of many emotional and heart-breaking moments in history.
