Buenos Aires

Located on the banks of the Río de la Plata, in mid-eastern Argentina, the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA for its acronym in Spanish) is one of the country's 24 federal entities, and is also the country's capital. As the seat of the federal government, it is also known as Capital Federal. The city is Argentina’s largest urban conglomerate and one of the most populous in South America.

Buenos Aires is the cradle of the tango, which was declared part of humanity’s intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO in 2013. The magic of its melodies can be felt in every corner of local neighborhoods La Boca, San Telmo, Abasto, Boedo and Almagro, capturing the hearts of visiting tourists from around the world.
