Arrive at Ezeiza International Airport, the airport for Buenos Aires.
Referred to as the "Paris of South America", Buenos Aires is considered one of the most livable cities in South America. Although the bustling capital city has just under 3,000,000 inhabitants and a population density of 13,680 inhabitants per square kilometer (34,800 per square mile), it was rated in 2018 as one of the top cities on the continent for its ‘quality of life’. Twinned with world cities such as Moscow and Miami, Buenos Aires displays through its architecture, a cultural past rooted in both the Old and New Worlds. A vibrancy for life can be seen everywhere. Crowded public markets, street performers dancing the tango, colorful graffiti-style street art, ultra-modern buildings, a dramatic skyline, and a bustling port. Culturally, Buenos Aires has the busiest live theatre industry on Earth, outperforming New York, London, and Paris. Every weekend, over 300 theatres are active with plays and productions.
Buenos Aires was founded in 1580 by Spanish explorer Juan de Garay, and has changed hands many times during its history.
