Buenos Aires neighborhoods

It is one of the neighborhoods of the city of Buenos Aires, which has grown in recent times as regards its buildings and new architectural trends.

In the past, there were deposits with goods of the ships, but the ideas have changed and has become a separate city where are concentrated luxurious, elegant and high level buildings.

Puerto Madero is a great attraction for the market of the real estate investment, there are offices and apartments at a high level to rent or buy. In few time was premiered the large tower of YPF.

It is a quiet place, guarded by the Prefectura Naval Argentina, near the ecological reserve and a few minutes from downtown. They also are luxury hotels like the Hilton or Faena and restaurants of high level.

Argentina from North to South.

Part I

Surely, many have thought they know Argentina, but they do not decided witch places of our country are going to visits. I have been luckly enought to know several points of the country and I think I can recommend 6 places or tourist areas that can not be missing.

Lets take as a starting point; Buenos Aires, where key locations are: “Caminito” famoust street of the tango in the neighborhood of La Boca, Recoleta Cemetery, the Forests of Palermo, the “Manzanas de las Luces” in San Telmo, Plaza de Mayo, and so on. Do not miss a lunch in Puerto Madero, a walk down the Florida street or a tango show. Take advantage of the wide variety of accommodations in Buenos Aires, for every style hotels, apartments, apart-hotels, bed and breakfast, and so on.

Then we go towards the northeast of Argentina, more accurate to the city of Iguazu in Misiones province where you can visit the Iguassu Falls and take hiking tours in contact with the missionary jungle. Yu can found on this website www.iguazujunglexplorer.com other jungle tours.

After the visit to Misiones we continue our way to the northwestern of Argentina. In Jujuy, “La Puna”, which includes a vast salt fields, with a surface similar to the lunar full of harmony and unforgettable sensations; we also have small towns like Purmamarca where you found the famous hill of the seven colors, and the Quebrada de Humahuaca a place in heaven declared “world heritage”.

In Salta you can make the journey on the “Tren de la Nuves” which is one of the highest in the world and you can appreciate the scenery beyond belief, we can also enjoy the small settlement of Cafayate in the mountainous surroundings, and to completed it can not fail the city of Salta, on the cliff “Balderrama” where you can appreciate native food, music and folk dancing.

THE TANGO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

The tango World championship develops in Buenos Aires city from 24 to 1 of September. More than 400 couples will participate in the competition that includes interesting events, activities, Tango concerts and Dance classes.

The main headquarter of the championship is going to be at the “Harrods store”, and in the 1 of September will be the finals with the participation of the international Mariano Mores orchestra with Raul Lavierán in voice.

This event confirms that Buenos Aires was the word and most important tango center, supported by wide range of hotels, restaurants and furnished apartments.

In the official championship site I found a good resource with access at the compete information, very simple and fast. We can enter to every event by days and the access to the full schedule. We can download all the press releases arrange by date.

Jazz in Buenos Aires

Hotels in Buenos Aires continue the trend of mixing relax and cultural activities to enjoy the art of good living.

Every Thursday of May, the hotel invites you to share an excellent proposal to enjoy dining and dancing. Every Thursdays of May at night, Pilar Sheraton Hotel & Convention Center invites you to enjoy the best Jazz in Don Giovanni Ristorante.

Lovers of jazz and gourmet food will find live shows and disc jockeys, exquisite cuisine and excellent service in one of its exclusive gourmet restaurants. It will be with a dinner composed of a menu that includes starter, main course and dessert, especially prepared by Guillermo Busquiazo, Executive Chef of hotel.

Just 35 minutes from downtown, you will find the possibility of sharing a special night. Enjoy!!

A new law in Buenos Aires…

A new law in Argentina will protect the consumer from now on, with the prices of the services and products destined for foreign tourism. This will avoid the differentiated prices for tourists, usually a bit more expensive than for local consumers.

The 8th bis article specifies respect of the air tickets, granting protection to the tourist as a consumer. From now on, all the passengers local and foreign tourists will pay the same price.

The argument of “Defensa de usuarios y consumidores” (DEUCO) -Entity of Defense for Users and Consumers- is that “
 there can not be discriminatory prices for a foreign visitor due to the inequality that this implies
”

Also, Guillermo Lavallen of the Hotels of Tourism Asociation (AHT) clarified that they are putting in practice this policy for some years, and the differentiation made was necessary in the 2001-2002 crisis.
