What people say

"This beautiful square is one of the city's landmarks because of its historical and architectural significance. It has some beautiful gardens and green spaces, boasts some important monuments like the Monumento de los Dos Congresos (Monument of the Two Congresses) and in the center you can find a large statue representing the Republic. As the name says, it's located in front of the Argentine National Congress building which is also a super impressive sight with its neoclassical design and the square is surrounded by other beautiful buildings as well."
Allyssa Leaton
"A small and beautiful public plaza facing the Argentine Congress. Golden hour is radiant from this side of town and illuminates the french-architecture buildings beautifully!"

A collection of popular and lesser-known places in Buenos Aires to explore, eat, drink, photograph, co-work, find community, and so much more! šŸ‡¦šŸ‡· Nearly all of these I have been to myself, the remaining others I have been recommended repeatedly, but havenā€™t yet had the chance to visit.

Inside, youā€™ll find 150+ unique recommendations sorted and subcategorized among the following sections: Sightseeing, Museums & Art Galleries, Outdoor Spaces, Day Trips, CafĆ©s & Bakeries, Restaurants & Food, Nightlife, LGBTQ+, Shopping, Street Photography, and Bonus (rotating events & more!) As a bilingual, queer, and solo female traveler having spent 6+ months in Buenos Aires, this list is my treasured resource to daily life and tourism in the city with an emphasis on cultural immersion. Iā€™ve included a wide array of free activities, affordable options, and a few handpicked higher-end experiences for passerby travelers and nomads alike. Buenos Aires is massive and has lots to offer, but is also home to hidden beauty and unique gems waiting to be discovered. I recommend you explore at your own pace, strolling the beautiful neighborhoods and leaving room for serendipity while sorting through the places in this guide that resonate with you the most!
