Buenos Aires which is the capital city of Argentina is one of the largest and best populated cities in Latin America. The City is located slightly outside the province, but the area is so densely populated and lively that it becomes hard to tell where one ends and the other begins. There are around 14 million people living in this colorful city, and it is famed for being autonomous. Buenos Aires has much to offer tourists, not least a friendly and lively welcome.

Unique Experiences Abound On the Galapagos Islands
It’s hard to think of the Galapagos Islands without a feeling sense of foreboding awe, not very different from a twisted Genesis concoction. Charles Darwin may have contributed more to this preconception than anything else; his travel logs on the island was at times morose or appalled, and you couldn’t help but picture the islands beneath an all-encompassing dark cloud of terror. That’s a shame, since the Galapagos is the most fertile exotic ecosystem you may yet visit in your life, and you’ll be so amazed at the stark natural contradictions on the island that the curious cat in you can’t help but be lured to stay.
The Best Beaches of Rio de Janeiro
From the city center to the suburbs, here’s a brief description of Rio’s beaches:
Flamengo: A giant area of 100 hectares of land reclaimed from the sea, Parque do Flamengo was designed by Burle Marx and opened in 1965 on the Flamengo, Gloria and Catete waterfront. The park is well landscaped with gardens and football fields. The beach is not overly wide, nor beautiful, but offers views of Pao de Acucar and Corcovado. As it faces the bay, the sea is dirty. The area is police-patrolled, but not recommended at night. High-class Cariocas would not be caught dead here.
