Fodor's Essential Argentina: with the Wine Country, Uruguay & Chilean Patagonia
Whether you want to dance the tango in Buenos Aires, sip wine in Mendoza, or explore the...
Glamorous and gritty, Buenos Aires is two cities in one. What makes Argentina's capital so fascinating is its dual heritage—part European, part Latin American. Plaza de Mayo resembles a grand square in Madrid, and the ornate Teatro Colón would not be out of place in Vienna.

Limited-production wines, juicy steaks, and ice cream in countless flavors are among the old-world imports the city has perfected.
