What to do and see in Balvanera, Capital Federal District: The Best Museums
The birthplace of the tango is, like the dance itself, captivating, seductive and bustling with excited energy. Atmospheric old neighborhoods are rife with romantic restaurants and thumping nightlife, and Buenos Aires' European heritage is evident in its architecture, boulevards and parks. Cafe Tortoni, the city's oldest bar, will transport you back to 1858, and the spectacular Teatro Colon impresses just as it did in 1908. Latin America's shopping capital offers the promise of premium retail therapy along its grand, wide boulevards.

Located inside the Abasto Shopping Mall, this kids’ museum is a representation of a city's businesses: there is a supermarket, a bank, a candy shop, a TV studio, a radio station, a port (featuring a pirate ship!), a house, and much more! There is no "no touching" here, our aim is for kids to learn while playing. All kids from 0 to 12 years old can come and play, for the youngest ones, the Museum includes a soft play area.

Incredible experience in such a wonderful place. It's really like being in an urban ritual, a very personal trip surrounded by hundreds, everybody experiencing their own journey. The music is superb and you feel very confortable all the time. Can't explain much more... if you happen to be in Buenos Aires on sunday, this is truelly a must!

Legendary tango singer Carlos Gardel bought the home housing this museum for his mother in the 1920s. Today it’s essentially a shrine to the man whose music put the Argentine tango scene on the world map.

I just read the first bit of the name, ‘Museo del Patrimonio’ on google and expected a sort of national museum, origins of the country, customs, culture, that sort of thing. That it isn’t, except for the bit where culture and custom coincide with a need for clean water and adequate waste removal. This place is simply fantastic. Really interesting displays, a vast array of pipes and toilets and a testament to civil engineering. Mostly British, I couldn’t help but notice.
