Buenos Aires<\/strong>, the capitol of Argentina, is known as “The Paris of the South”<\/strong> for its gorgeous tree-lined boulevards, picturesque French-style architecture, and art and cafe culture. The tempo of the city is very Spanish, with its inhabitants often observing their version of siesta (taking very long lunches during the day) and eating dinner late and staying out even later.
