Hi girls! Hope you’re enjoying your pseudo–holidays! Lol! Here I am again, this time writing to tell you that last week I thought I needed a break from my family and my studies, so I asked my boyfriend what he thought about the idea of running away somewhere just for the weekend, and he totally agreed it was a great idea, and he went on asking me which destination was the most suitable for such a short trip, and, as usual, we certainly coincided that, by far, Bs As was the best getaway! Every so often, we catch a bus to Bs As to spend the weekend, we just love it ! Let me here tell you why we are so fond of Bs As ...!
What we find particularly attractive about the capital city is its stimulating culture, youthful energy and its vibrant nightlife. Bs As is a massive city, bustling with life and energy 24/7! So it doesn’t matter if you stop off during the week or by the weekend, you can always find interesting things to do and places to visit! During the day we usually pop quickly into the Malba museum to whiz around the current exhibition, which is, in the main, worth seeing. This time there was an over-the-top collection of paintings, sculptures and photographs, all concerning the 20th century Latin American Art - absolutely dazzling!
No matter how many times we do it, whenever we go to Bs As, we never tire of taking a stroll up the San Telmo market on a Sunday morning, where we can browse the great variety of hip and funky items, sold at the many stalls that are standing in line, on both sides, all along Defensa Street. The atmosphere here is very lively and cheerful, always charged with excitement; streets are mainly packed with hordes of young tourists who seem to be having great fun with their friends as they are exploring the so intriguing Latin America culture. At mid-day, we usually give ourselves a treat by ordering a roast beef like no other at one the many cosy spots San Telmo offers! Afterwards, we may head down to La Boca neighbourhood, just to chill out while listening to tango and having some coffee.
Bs As nightlife is, to our way of seeing it, one of the main highlights of any visit to the capital. We reckon it’s the underground bars, with their own different style, that make hanging out at Bs As so very special. For a guaranteed choice, if you’re big on rock music, we heartily recommend that you check out these places: Salon Pueyrredon, Acabar and Sugar. They are all nearby Palermo Hollywood neighbourhood – I know this neighbourhood sounds like a fancy, swanky place, though those pubs are by no means posh or stylish. If you head to these places, you’ll definitely rock the night away!
I hope after reading this Bs As will start growing on you ;) ! Just give it a chance, and go visit it for a couple of days, you’ll see you’ll find it such a great city too!
It really seems that bs as is the place to be ! Lucky for me i'm going there in just a few weeks, first i need to find a buenos aires apartment , and then ill plan what places i'll visit. I already add San Telmo market and palermo hollywood as 2 important places i should go, thanks for the info !
