BUENOS   AIRES

There are no two ways about it: Buenos Aires is a frenetic and pulsating city. Love, passion, and power radiate from Argentina's capital and largest city.   Blame it on the tango - this sensual, erotic dance pulsates through the city's consciousness, morning, noon, and night.

Buenos Aires in Spanish means "fair winds", which explains why it is the main port of Argentina. Situated in Eastern Argentina, the city of Buenos Aires runs along a wide funnel shaped bay called Rio de la Plata. A truly modern city, Buenos Aires has very few old structures left. The central part of the city retains its original lay out, perhaps the reason why one still finds narrow one-way streets in this area. The rest of the city owes its beauty to state of the art buildings, broad lanes and lots of parks, all of which add to the sense of spaciousness in the city.
