No. 2 of Best Things to Do in Argentina

Teatro Colón

8.8

4.6/5

82 reviews

Teatro Colón is located next to the wide Av. 9 de Julio and is an eclectic-style opera house, with architecture that blends Italian and French elements. The theater opened in 1908, with Verdi's opera "Aida" as its inaugural performance, and has since hosted numerous singers and conductors. Acoustics expert Leo Beranek once surveyed international opera and orchestra conductors, and the results showed that its main auditorium's opera acoustics rank among the best in the world. The horseshoe-shaped main auditorium features a color palette of scarlet and gold, with a bronze chandelier weighing over a ton hanging in the center, and the dome is painted with a mural created by Argentine painter Raúl Soldi. The Golden Hall was inspired by the grand foyer of the Palais Garnier, with its golden finishes, mirrors, and lighting fixtures reflecting each other. It is now used for chamber music concerts and receptions. The stained-glass dome refracts brilliant colors when light shines through it. The theater also houses costume rooms, scenery workshops, and rehearsal spaces underground, allowing the entire production system to be completed in-house, which is rare among opera houses. After a major renovation in 2010, the theater restored its former glory.

Recoleta Cemetery

4.3/5

123 reviews

Recoleta Cemetery, established in 1822, is a well-known open-air mausoleum complex in Buenos Aires. The entire cemetery is laid out like a city grid, with wide, tree-lined main avenues branching into narrow alleys. Nearly 5,000 above-ground mausoleums line the alleys, making walking inside feel like navigating a maze-like "miniature city." It houses marble mausoleums of various architectural styles, including Neo-Gothic, Baroque, Art Deco, and Art Nouveau. Many mausoleums are adorned with exquisite statues and reliefs, and much of the marble and decorative materials used in their construction were imported from Paris and Milan. The cemetery is the final resting place for many of Argentina's military and political figures, as well as Nobel laureates. Among them, the tomb of Eva Perón, located deep in a narrow alley, attracts many visitors who come specifically to pay their respects. In addition, works by the renowned Argentine sculptor Lola Mora are located here, and the uniquely designed tomb of Liliana Crociati de Szaszak stands out for its distinctive style.

The obelisk

7.9

4.3/5

85 reviews

The obelisk stands in Republic Square and is one of the city's iconic landmarks. In 1936, to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the founding of Buenos Aires, Argentine modernist architect Alberto Prebisch designed this monument, adopting the geometric shape of a traditional obelisk. The monument is approximately 67.5 m high, built with a reinforced concrete structure, features simple geometric lines throughout, and was completed in just about 1 month. Its location has a special historical background—the Church of St. Nicholas once stood here. There is a window on each of the four sides at the top of the monument, offering a panoramic view of the city. Each of the four sides of the monument is also engraved with inscriptions, each recording important events related to the city's history.

Plaza de la Republica

7.9

Plaza de la Republica centers on a stark white obelisk. Its simple, geometric lines rise sharply, creating an unmistakable silhouette against the city skyline. The plaza's location holds a piece of the city's history: it was once the site of the Church of St. Nicholas of Bari. While the church no longer stands, the plaza has become a vibrant stage for civic life and public activity. By day, crowds and traffic flow ceaselessly around the obelisk. After dark, the nearby theater district lights up, and cafes, bars, and restaurants keep the neighborhood buzzing. For visitors, the plaza is an open space where you can feel the city's pulse. Many people take photos with the obelisk as a backdrop or pause on the surrounding lawns and benches to watch the traffic and pedestrians on the wide avenues. The plaza is flat and accessible for wheelchairs and strollers, though shade is limited, so be sure to bring sun protection during daytime visits. Other city landmarks, such as the Teatro Colón and the Casa Rosada, are within walking distance and can be visited together.

Plaza de Mayo

7.9

4.3/5

166 reviews

Plaza de Mayo is the main square of Buenos Aires, with a history dating back to the city's founding by the Spanish in 1580. The square was formerly the colonial-era Plaza de la Victoria and Plaza del Fuerte. In 1884, the colonnade separating the two squares was demolished, and they were merged and officially named after the May Revolution of 1810—a revolution that took place on May 25 and marked the beginning of Argentina's path to independence from Spanish colonial rule. In the center of the square stands the Pirámide de Mayo, built in 1811 to commemorate the first anniversary of the May Revolution. It is surrounded by several iconic buildings: the pink Casa Rosada at the east end, and the colonial-era Cabildo at the west end, which is now a museum displaying historical artifacts from the May Revolution; to the north is theBuenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral. These buildings, with their diverse yet harmonious architectural styles, make the square feel like an open-air history museum.

Barrio Chino

6

4.1/5

23 reviews

Barrio Chino is located in the Belgrano district of the capital and is one of the core gathering places for the Chinese community in Argentina. It formed spontaneously through the settlement and business operations of Asian immigrants, and today it extends to both sides with Arribeños Street as its axis. It is adjacent to the train station and offers convenient transportation. The iconic Chinese-style archway at the entrance features marble pillars adorned with stone lion carvings, and the "Chinatown" inscription on the lintel is very eye-catching. The core section within the archway has been designated as a pedestrian street, where Asian restaurants and supermarkets are densely distributed across just a few short streets. In addition, a Buddhist temple is located here. The shelves of the Chinese supermarkets are stocked with Asian ingredients, and with options ranging from Chinese, Japanese, and Korean cuisine to Thai food, the variety of flavors is quite rich.

5.0/5

Recoleta is one of the neighborhoods in Buenos Aires with a European flair. From the late 19th to the early 20th century, many wealthy families hired French architects to build mansions here.

The neighborhood is home to many cultural landmarks. The Recoleta Cemetery is a renowned cemetery in South America, famous for its ornate mausoleum architecture and the historical figures buried within.

TheRecoleta Cultural Centerwas converted from an 18th-century Franciscan building and hosts year-round exhibitions and events featuring contemporary art, music, and dance.

La Boca

8.3

4.1/5

100 reviews

La Boca is an old neighborhood by the port of Buenos Aires. In the late 19th century, large numbers of Italian and Spanish immigrants settled here, making a living from port labor and shipbuilding. They used leftover ship paint to paint their tin shacks, unintentionally creating the colorful streetscape seen today. The heart of the neighborhood is a pedestrian street called Caminito, which has been turned into an open-air museum. The highly saturated, colorful houses on both sides are stacked on top of each other, and the walls are covered with murals and reliefs by local artists. Tango dancers often perform impromptu shows on the street. This place is considered one of the important birthplaces of tango, and the name Caminito itself is taken from a tango song of the same name. The neighborhood also carries a strong football culture. The home stadium ofArgentine football club Boca Juniors, Estadio Alberto J Armando, is nearby, where Maradona once played in the blue and gold jersey. Next to the stadium is the team museum, which displays collections such as trophies and jerseys from over the years.

We purchased the option for the VIP only show which gave us great seats and what seemed to be unlimited drinks, plus a couple of bites to eat. The show was centrally located which meant we could walk to and from our hotel, saving time on transportation. The show was well choreographed and had some excellent dancers. The passion, athleticism and skill of the dancers was evident throughout the show. It was a very well choreographed dance but also a fantastic show and definitely a must see while in Buenos Aires.

Recoleta Cemetery is one of the most prominent attractions in downtown Buenos Aires. It is the final resting place of many political figures, historical heroes, and business tycoons. The tombs, each with its own unique style, resemble a European architectural exhibition. The cemetery also contains numerous sculptures erected by the families of the deceased, evoking a sense of remembrance and mourning. Respect for death is a unique aspect of Argentine culture; they believe that only at the end of life can a person truly and completely reveal the meaning and value of their existence. The tomb of Eva Perón, the revered First Lady of Argentina, is located at number C7-88. This is arguably the most prominent spot in the entire cemetery. Although its location, scale, and appearance are not particularly special, and it can even be a little difficult to find without asking staff, it attracts a constant stream of visitors every day, demonstrating its enduring appeal.

La Boca is a very vibrant and colorful area in Buenos Aires. it is an area with colorful houses, shops and restaurants. be sure to go during the day and do not wear fancy clothing or jewelries and not to cross over to Baraccas due to safety reason. otherwise it is a nice stroll and walk through city.
