Stroll through the parks and cultural centers


On Sunday, it's still in Puerto Madero you love to stroll and sunbathe at Parque Micaela Bastidas-. It is accessible via the Avenue Rosario Vera Peñaloza-which is a continuation of the street from the United States. The park covers five hectares is named after the wife of Jose Gabriel Condorcanqui, the descendant of the last Inca king Tupac Amaru.

The walker will enjoy celebrating the lightness of life on a terrace of Palermo and stroll through the many parks of the city. Buenos Aires combines excitement and sweetness of life. Bewitched by the rich culture and atmosphere of the city back, it feels the time to stay as a latin South America. The Porteños, living in a city of twelve million people are often friendly, relaxed and spontaneous with the visitor.
