Buenos Aires is one of the great cities of South America - a vibrant, cosmopolitan and culturally fascinating metropolis. It has a strong European influence borne from large scale immigration from Spain, Italy and France and some excellent and grandiose 19th century architecture along its wide avenues. Buenos Aires has several distinctive neighbourhoods. San Telmo is the artists quarter with some great restaurants and bars and a wonderful Sunday market. The Italian barrio of La Boca is famous for its colourfully painted buildings, street tango shows and the passion and spectacle of the football games of the Boca Juniors team. Palermo and Recoleta are the fashionable districts, the latter famous for the grandiose tombs at La Recoleta Cemetery, resting place of Eva Peron. Back in the city centre, Plaza de Mayo is surrounded by important historical buildings including the presidential palace, site of the mass demonstrations in support of Peron in 1945. It is at night when Buenos Aires comes alive though, with the bars, tango shows and nightclubs keeping the city pulsating until the early hours.
