Buenos Aires, Argentina
Buenos Aires is the capital city and largest city of Argentina and has recently gained even more attention as an international hot spot for the arts and tourism. The second largest city in South America, behind Sao Paulo, Buenos Aires retains the claim to highest concentration of theaters over any other city in the world. As a South American mecca, Buenos Aires is an essential stop to truly experience the unique fusion between traditional European colonialism and richly vibrant Latin culture - apparent in the architecture, art, cuisine, music, and easy going lifestyles. I admit a city of this size felt overwhelming at times, but it's the same compromise of any international metropolitan area. Enjoy the pictures
