Sex and revolution in Buenos Aires

Che Guevara on Rolling Stone magazine, Buenos Aires, Argentina © Samosir Books
Buenos Aires is the birthplace of Tango. Its colonial streets ooze sensuality and its latin character gives the city a vibrant heartbeat that will have you partying until dawn. BA comes alive at night, with restaurants, bars and clubs spread out across the city. Steak and red wine, Italian cuisine and Fernet Branca cocktails fuel this stylish city on the South American continent. The time to go is now!
