Time Out Shortlist Buenos Aires Paperback – July 14, 2009 by Editors of Time Out (Editor)
 
Sprawling and strange, magical and melancholy, continually veering between triumph and disaster, Buenos Aires has an irresistible allure. Written entirely by residents, Time Out Buenos Aires casts an independent and critical eye on the places, people, and culture that have made this metropolis great and the contemporary trends conspiring to make it greater still. Looking past the “Paris of South America” clichés, this guide helps visitors make sense of the confusing jumble of influences that is Buenos Aires’ trademark: its century-old cafés and world-famous steak houses; its word-of-mouth bars and backstreet bistros; its late-night tango salons and edgy all-night clubs; its prestigious cultural landmarks and improvised warehouse galleries. Candid, detailed, and informative, Time Out Shortlist Buenos Aires is the perfect companion for the traveler seeking the heart of the city.
