Learning Spanish in Buenos Aires

January 31st, 2006 Posted in Destinations, Argentina

Now is a very good time to be learning Spanish in Buenos Aires. It’s summer, and that means there are lots of things to do after your classes.

As well as the usual, permanent sights, museums, tango shows, etc., there are a few very interesting temporary exhibitions:
The Borges Cultural Centre, in the centre of Buenos Aires, is celebrating its tenth birthday and perhaps the most attractive exhibition is a show of three sets of engravings by Marc Chagall based on the Bible, the seven deadly sins and Nikolai Gogol’s novel “Dead Souls” (until 5th March);
For free outdoor events you can try Palermo’s Rosedal park, with concerts throughout the season; the amphitheatre in the new Puerto Madero park complex will show the best of Argentine cinema on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays; and six theatre groups will also present works at different locations in the city on Saturdays and Sundays;
At the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes you’ll find a remarkable photography exhibit this summer, with more than 30 portraits of local and international figures, taken by different well-known international photographers.

These are just some of the offerings available - Buenos Aires is, after all, considered by many to be the cultural capital of South America. So book your Spanish course quickly and escape from the Northern winter!
