The capital of Argentina has a very cosmopolitan feel and some
world class hotels to stay in.
The best time to visit Buenos Aires is during spring because of the
good weather.
Buenos Aires is a very populated city which leads to some difficulties
regarding transport. Subway and buses are usually overcrowded during work hours.
It is not recommended to go downtown with a car, since parking lots
are expensive and you can't leave the car on the street.
Most important places to visit: Teatro Colon, Plaza de Mayo, La Boca,
San Telmo.
