The development of Mar del Plata as a seasonal resort in the early 20th century led upper class tourists from Buenos Aires to build a European-inspired architecture, based mainly on the picturesque and later on the art deco styles. This gave Mar del Plata the nickname of the Argentine Biarritz.

Los Glacieres National Park

On the southwestern Argentine side, there are more than 300 glaciers, some of them in the Parque Nacional Los Glaciares, Glacier National Park, extends for 217 miles (350 km) along the Andes. Los Glaciares is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and includes ice fields covering about 40% of the surface, two lakes and 47 major glaciers. Thirteen glaciers reach toward the Atlantic, while the glaciers Perito Moreno, Mayo, Spegazzini, Upsala, Agassiz, Onelli, Ameghino feed the lakes in the park. Among them is Lago Argentino, the largest lake in Argentina, and already 15,000 years old.

History of the Perito Moreno Glacier

Looking west at Glacier (Perito) Moreno from Cerro Buenos Aires

Perito Moreno is named for Francisco Pascasio Moreno, whose nickname was Perito. More formally known as Dr. Francisco P. Moreno, Honoris Causa, (1852-1919), he was the first Argentine to travel the area and his Reminiscencias Del Perito Moreno were later compiled by his son. Moreno gave the Argentine nation the land that became Nahuel Napi National Park. Many places in southwestern Argentina are named for him. It was he who named Cerro Fitzroy after the captain of HMS Beagle.

Advice: when visiting the glacier, you can see gigantic pieces of ice break away with a thunderous crack and plunge into the water (a process called “calving”). It’s awesome, don’t miss it.

Tango is a music genre from Argentina. It’s associated with a dance form and a whole culture.

Early tango was known as tango criollo. Today, there are many tango dance styles, including Argentine Tango, Uruguayan Tango, Ballroom tango (in performing shows), Finnish tango and vintage tangos. What many consider to be the authentic tango is that closest to that originally danced in Argentina.

Tango originated in lower-class districts of Buenos Aires around eighteen century. The music derived from the fusion of various forms of music from Europe . The word Tango seems to have first been used in connection with the dance in the 1890s. Initially it was just one of the many dances, but it soon became popular throughout society, as theatres and street barrel organs spread it from the suburbs to the working-class slums, which were packed with hundreds of thousands of European immigrants, primarily Italians, Spanish and French.

Tango is quite a sensual dance, bodies are permanently in touch. Recently, a gay Tango is being developed at Buenos Aires. Gay milongas (places where dance Tango) are spread all over Buenos Aires.

If you dare to try this dance, BAGayTravel, a gay travel agency at Buenos Aires, offers a nice package around this experience. It includes 6 nights accommodation, tango show, city and museums tour & gay nightlife tour. Don’t miss the Buenos Aires Gay Tango Experience!
