When to go to Buenos Aires?
In La Boca, the corrugated houses of Caminito are painted in whatever colour was going, and tango happens on the pavement. Palermo answers with shaded parks and pavement tables that fill up around midnight. Between the marble avenues of Recoleta cemetery and the gilded tiers of the Teatro Colón, the city holds its European grandeur and its own restless accent in the same hand.
