It is also home to one of the world's busiest ports. Buenos Aires has always been strongly influenced by European culture - indeed it is known as the "Paris of South America" and boasts a plethora of museums, theaters, art galleries, famous composers, writers and artists, lots of South American temperament, gaucho tradition, and a flourishing arts scene. Tango, originally born in the brothels of the poorer suburbs and accepted and adopted into Parisian high society in the 1920's, very much represents the spirit of this fascinating city and the passion of its people. So when you visit a local café be prepared for more than just a cup of coffee - you might be lucky enough to witness the locals literally sweeping each other off their feet. The most popular tourist attractions can be found in the inner city and include beautiful architecture, monuments and artworks, and of course - plenty of tango shows!á
