The capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires!

The capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires. Let's not talk about football first, let's talk about other aspects of this city. Before its independence, it was ruled by Spain for many years. It was also discovered by a Spanish explorer who made preliminary plans for it. His bronze statue is still here, so the city is full of authentic European architecture. Among them, the Plaza de Mayo, which is also the central square, features a dark red Byzantine-style building, which is the presidential palace of Argentina, known as the Casa Rosada. The entire city's streets were planned by that explorer into blocks resembling pieces of tofu. But as the city expanded, it also saw the emergence of the widest avenue in the world, called 'Avenida 9 de Julio', which from a distance looks like an airport runway, but planes cannot land on it. To briefly mention football, representative figures include Messi and Batistuta.
