Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires är Argentinas huvudstad och den rikaste staden i Sydamerika, en rikedom som också gäller kultur, musik och konst

En kosmopolitisk stad full av elegans och energi

Buenos Aires är Argentinas huvudstad och den rikaste staden i Sydamerika, en rikedom som också gäller kultur, musik och konst.

När din lyxiga MSC Cruises-kryssare glider in vid den nymoderniserade kryssningsterminalen ser du de ståtliga skyskraporna, som ger en antydan om elegansen och energin på detta viktiga kryssningsresmål, världens nionde största, kosmopolitiska stad.

Buenos Aires ligger på Sydamerikas östkust och dess namn betyder ”bra luft” på spanska. Invånarna kallas porteños (hamnfolket). För att du ska kunna dra mesta möjliga fördel av allt som detta härliga semestermål har att erbjuda, har MSC Cruises organiserat ett innehållsrikt paket med aktiviteter och utflyktserbjudanden som ger dig det bästa av livet i Argentina. Buenos Aires är uppdelat i 47 små stadsdelar eller ”barrios”, och vart och ett av dem har sin egen särskilda prägel.

Distriktet La Recoleta påminner om Paris, medan San Telmo visar upp stadens multinationella arv i form av sin spanskkoloniala, italienska och utsökta franska arkitektur. Din semester i Buenos Aires skulle inte bli fullständig utan en smak av tango, den sensuella romantiska dansen som föddes på 1870-talet och nu har upphöjts till en konstform.

Pröva på en tangodans och ta dig igenom en middag med det delikata argentinska nötkött som landet är beryktat för. Med de sagolika shoppingmöjligheter som finns är det knappast sannolikt att du kommer tomhänt tillbaka till fartyget, men den bästa souveniren du får med dig blir det bestående intryck som staden gör på dig.
