Exquisite palaces and luxurious apartment buildings
combine with art galleries and exclusive boutiques to
make Retiro the perfect spot for those who enjoy
sophistication. However, the non-stop foot traffic to
and from Retiro train and bus terminals, accompanied
by the myriad of trucks leaving and arriving at the
port, mean this neighbourhood is never truly at rest.
One minute you are walking down a street dotted with
...More
ornate mansions and luxurious shop windows and the
next you find yourself surrounded by a sea of people
racing to catch their train or bus. It is this
juxtaposition of never-ending comings and goings and
quiet, elegant luxury that defines Retiro, as well as
Buenos Aires, a city where sharp contrasts are all
around.
