Highlights of Buenos Aires
Discover why people call Buenos Aires “the city of many passions.” The people are called “Porteños,” the people of the port. They have immigrant blood, they are passionate. Therefore, they always give big embraces and always greet with a kiss.
Tables are always crowded with friends, uncles and aunts, cousins, children, brothers and sisters, and they talk for hours. They don’t speak Spanish; they speak porteño. This is their own unique dialect that is part of the city’s identity. The taxi drivers are poets and philosophers. A football match is a spectacle everyone must experience at least once.
You may find the locals a little noisy. However in Buenos Aires, you can be sure about one thing, you’ll feel part of the city. And when you leave to say adios, you’ll leave your mark and take something of BA with you.
