Vibrant, cosmopolitan and incredibly creative: that is Buenos Aires in three words. Argentina’s economic and cultural capital is a delicious concoction of European flair and Latin American vigour. The European influence can be seen, for example, in the city’s striking architecture, cobblestoned streets, classy neighbourhoods, gorgeous theatres and cafes. But what drives the city is its restless energy and creative exuberance, which are pure Latin American. It is reflected in the city’s unmatched nightlife, amazing food, local art scene, and the general attitude towards life. The birthplace of tango and Borges, Buenos Aires is a city like no other in Latin America.

Every superlative you ever heard about Buenos Aires' nightlife is true. The city really gets going at night. Filled with some of the trendiest nightclubs and bars you will find in Latin America, Palermo is the nightlife hub of the city. You can dance and drink till morning (yes, morning!) at Rose Bar, Kika, Niceto, INK Buenos Aires, Larc and the Elite Jet Lounge. If you are looking for something more relaxed, then Buenos Aires has great bars as well. Doppelganger, Napoles Bar, Victoria Brown Bar and Floreria Atlantico are classy places to eat and drink.
If it is tango you seek, head to Maldita and La Cathedral. And, not to forget splendid cafes like La Biblioteca Cafe and Cafe San Bernardo, they offer fantastic live music.
