Events
The Feria del Libro annual book fair draws over a million book fans to Bs As during April, with Latin American literature most widely represented. The event takes place at the sprawling Centro Municipal de Exposiciones. In mid-May, the Ark BA, features exhibitions from over 80 different galleries and showcases a variety of influences from Argentina and around the world.
Bs As is famous for its tango heritage, and on June 24 each year locals celebrate the anniversary of the death of Carlos Gardel, the man who took tango to the world. Many events take place around the city, to mark the occasion and the singer's tomb at Chacarita draws Elvis-like worshipping hordes. For those interested in Argentina's traditional gaucho (cowboy) heritage, the Campeonato Abierto Argentino de Pato in December is the championship play-off for the pato crown; it's a bit like watching a game of horseback rugby. Also in December is the Campeonato Abierto Argentino de Polo, the slightly more highbrow polo championship season finale.
Attractions
Cementerio de la Recoleta
One of Bs As' prime tourist attractions, the Cementerio de la Recoleta sits in the plushest of neighborhoods, ritzy Recoleta. High walls surround this necropolis where, in death as in life, generations of Argentina's elite rest in ornate splendor.
It's fascinating to wander around and explore this extensive mini-city of lofty statues, detailed marble facades and earthy-smelling sarcophagi, all the while reading family names of those with enough social points to make it in here. Follow the crowds and you'll find Evita's grave.
