Microcentro

Buenos Aires downtown, also known as Microcentro, is the busiest place in town. Financial, institutional, and commercial center of Buenos Aires, its main streets are the popular Corrientes Avenue, Florida pedestrian street, and the beautiful De Mayo Avenue. The epicenter of political demonstrations and social events in the history of Argentina is the Plaza de Mayo (May Square), where the Casa Rosada, the national government, stands. From its balcony the country's leaders have addressed the people, as Eva Peron did. And a few blocks further, we find Buenos Aires' most representative historical monument, the Obelisk.

Buenos Aires has a mix of styles.

Unlike most other Latin American cities, where the architecture reveals a strong Spanish colonial influence, Buenos Aires has a mix of styles. Modern high-rises sit side by side with ornate buildings from days long gone. At every turn you'll be reminded of the city's European heritage: with their boulevards lined with palatial mansions and spacious parks, the neighborhoods of El Centro, La Recoleta and Belgrano evoke Rome, Madrid, Paris, and Budapest. The Plazas of Palermo and Belgrano mirror those in Paris; Rome's Pantheon inspired the Parroquia de Nuestra Señora; the Avenida de Mayo has been compared to both Madrid and Budapest; and the Vatican Embassy on Avenida Alvear replicates the Jacquemart-Andre Museum in Paris. San Telmo and La Boca have a distinctly working-class Italian feel, in contrast to the stately aplomb of Plaza de Mayo and Avenida de Mayo.
