What To Expect

Plaza de Mayo
The May Square is located in the Porteño Downtown, neighborhood of Monserrat, in the area where the foundation of Buenos Aires took place. The Plaza de Mayo is the most important and oldest public square of the city. The name of this square commemorates the Revolution of May 25, 1810, date in which the citizens gathered around to expel the Viceroy and form a creole government. Since then, the Square has been a silent witness to the most important political and social events in the country.

Cafe Tortoni
Its name almost without doubt comes from what was at the end of the nineteenth century the famous Café Tortoni in Paris. For almost a century the Buenos Aires-Argentinean Tortoni Café is the most representative of the traditional spirit of the avenue de Mayo, and is already a legend of the city of Buenos Aires.

Teatro Colon
The Teatro Colón is an opera house in the city of Buenos Aires. Due to its size, acoustics and trajectory, it´s considered one of the five best in the world. According to a survey conducted by the acoustic expert Leo Beranek and outstanding international opera and orchestra directors, the Teatro Colón has the hall with the best acoustic for opera and the second best for concerts in the world.

Comparable with the most important lyrical rooms in the world, such as the Scala in Milan, the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, the State Opera of Vienna, the Royal Opera House (Covent Garden) in London and the Paris Opera, it is an unequivocal place of consecration for those who present themselves in it and an inescapable place for music lovers.

Its architectural value is a sample of the times when Argentina was an emerging economic power in the late nineteenth century, and the wealthiest families of the city began moving to the Recoleta area and building splendid pantheons in the cemetery.
