San Telmo ^ Among the city’s oldest barrios,<br />
cobblestoned San Telmo guards the<br />
lyrical spirit of the bodegón – the<br />
quintessentially porteño bar/café<br />
where a vermouth or croissant can be<br />
arranged anytime. Lanes lined with<br />
19th-century homes brim<br />
with performers on<br />
Sundays (see<br />
pp18–19).<br />

Tango<br />
Jaunty and humorous or dirge-like and<br />
mournful, tango – the capital’s dance,<br />
musical, and poetic art form – is still in full<br />
swoon, 120 years after its creation. With<br />
classes and performances galore, it is<br />
integral to the city’s culture and continues<br />
to captivate the people of <strong>Buenos</strong> <strong>Aires</strong><br />
and the rest of the world (see pp26–29).<br />
Avenida 9 de Julio<br />
& The grandest of Latin American<br />
avenues is flanked by dozens of cultural<br />
highlights, the biggest of which is Teatro<br />
Colón. Take care when crossing its 12lane<br />
width, which takes a few traffic-light<br />
cycles to accomplish (see pp20–21).<br />
* Museo de Arte Latinoamericano<br />
de <strong>Buenos</strong> <strong>Aires</strong> (MALBA)<br />
MALBA has quickly asserted itself since<br />
its 2001 opening. Its collection of Latin<br />
American artwork, which includes Diego<br />
Rivera and Xul Solar, has been supplemented<br />
with film screenings and a<br />
unique museum gift shop (see pp22–23).<br />

( Colonia del<br />
Sacramento,<br />
Uruguay<br />
Founded by Portuguese<br />

picturesque town. Its<br />
colorful colonial streets,<br />
Portuguese architecture,<br />
and relaxed pace, make<br />
it a popular weekend<br />
spot (see pp24–25).<br />
