Why you'll love it

Buenos Aires is Argentina's capital, a grand, European-style city known for tango, steak and late nights. It scores 9 out of 10 for food, culture and nightlife, and 8 for romance, so it's one of South America's great city breaks.

The best time to visit Buenos Aires is September to November or March to May, the spring and autumn months, with mild weather for walking. Summer is hot and humid.

See the colourful houses of the Caminito in La Boca, and browse the Sunday market in San Telmo. Visit Recoleta Cemetery and the grand Teatro Colón. Eat at a traditional parrilla, and catch a tango show or a milonga, where locals dance. Palermo has parks, bars and restaurants, and ferries cross the river to Colonia del Sacramento in Uruguay.

Buenos Aires suits couples, food lovers and night owls.
