In the first decade of the 20th century, Argentina became the richest nation in <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Latin_America" title="Latin America" id="mwig">Latin America</a>, its wealth symbolized by the opulence of its <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Buenos_Aires" title="Buenos Aires" id="mwiw">capital city</a>. During the roaring twenties, Argentina was one of the world's richest countries, with a GDP higher than that of major European economies such as France, Germany and Italy. European immigrants flowed into Argentina, particularly from the northern parts of Italy and Spain; by 1914 nearly 6 million people had come to the country.</p> <p id="mwjA">After World War II, Juan Perón came to power and instituted a form of populism commonly known as Peronism. Under Peron, Argentina instituted a protectionist economic policy that heavily restricted foreign trade. While such policies led to the overwhelming popularity of Peron and other Peronist politicians among the masses of working-class Argentinians, they also led Argentina's economy to stagnate. Peron was overthrown in a U.S.-backed military coup in 1976.</p> <p id="mwjQ">After waging an unsuccessful war with the <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/United_Kingdom" title="United Kingdom" id="mwjg">United Kingdom</a> over the <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Falkland_Islands" title="Falkland Islands" id="mwjw">Islas Malvinas</a> (<i id="mwkA">Falkland Islands</i>) in 1982, the military leadership lost power and democracy returned in 1983.</p> <p id="mwkQ">A painful economic crisis at the turn of the 21st century devalued the Argentine peso by a factor of three and ushered in a series of weak, short-lived governments along with social and economic instability. However, later in the decade Argentina seemed to find some new stability, and has a much better economic outlook albeit with the eternal problem of high inflation. Argentina is the third largest economy in Latin America, after Brazil and Mexico, and a member of the G20 group of major economies.</p> <p id="mwkg">Widespread discontent amid a hyperinflation crisis led to the election of anarcho-capitalist candidate Javier Milei as president in 2023. Milei has pledged to drastically downsize the government and cut welfare programs in order to rein in government spending, while also privatising all the state-owned businesses en masse. He has also pledged to abolish the Argentine Central Bank and Argentine peso, and instead adopt the U.S. dollar as Argentina's national currency. Milei has also pivoted Argentina's foreign policy away from China towards the United States and Israel, and converted to Judaism to show his support for the Zionist cause. Whether or not this can rein in inflation and improve the lives of average Argentines remains to be seen.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="9" id="mwkw"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBDg"><h3 id="Cultural_diversity">Cultural diversity</h3><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBDk"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBDo">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Cultural diversity" id="mwBDs"><span id="mwBDw">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBD0">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb" id="mwlA"><a href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/File:Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg" class="mw-file-description" id="mwlQ"><img resource="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/File:Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg/220px-Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg" decoding="async" data-file-width="4805" data-file-height="3203" data-file-type="bitmap" height="147" width="220" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg/330px-Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg/440px-Dia_del_Inmigrante_Buenos_Aires_2010_-_Escocia_02.jpg 2x" class="mw-file-element" id="mwlg"/></a><figcaption id="mwlw">Scottish Argentines taking part in an event</figcaption></figure> <p id="mwmA">Between 1850 and 1930, the country received millions of immigrants from all over the world. 98% of the population is of partial or full European ancestry.</p> <p id="mwmQ">Italians are the largest ethnic group in the country, with 60% of Argentines (30 million people) claiming Italian ancestry.

The Australian-style plugs are IRAM-2073, which are physically identical to the Australian AS-3112 standard (two blades in a V-shape, with or without a third blade for ground). However, the live and neutral pins in the Australian fittings are reversed. Therefore, Australian equipment may be incompatible despite the apparent plug-compatibility.

This does work but may reduce electrical safety or affect your warranty.</p> <p id="mwtQ">Some Argentine sockets accept North American plugs, particularly ones on power strips. This does <i id="mwtg">not</i> mean that these sockets supply 110 volts. Make sure that your equipment can handle 220 volts. Simply changing the shape of the plug with a US$2 adapter will not allow 110 V equipment to operate on 220 V Argentinian voltage, unless the device is specifically designed to work on both 110 and 220 volts, <b id="mwtw">irreparable damage and even fire can result</b>. Most laptop power adapters and many portable electronics chargers are designed to work on either voltage; check the specifications for your equipment to be sure. If your equipment cannot accept 220 V voltage, you can purchase a '220-110 V' transformer for approximately US$6 in most Argentinian electronics shops. This is much heavier and bulkier than a small adapter. There are two types of these transformers. One supports heavy loads for short durations, for example a hair dryer. The other supports light loads for long durations, for example an inkjet printer.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="11" id="mwuA"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBEQ"><h3

The former is for intercontinental flights and a few domestic ones (mostly to Río Gallegos and Ushuaia), which leave early in the morning but if you're continuing to another location in Argentina or to nearby international destinations (one flight hour away or so) by plane you'll in most cases have to travel from Ezeiza to Jorge Newbery. There are cheap shuttle buses which take you there in about an hour, but travel time varies greatly depending on traffic. Also, there are some flights to Jorge Newbery from three other important South American hubs, namely São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro or Santiago so if you have a changed planes at those airports, your connecting flight might arrive at (or leave from) Jorge Newbery. Take an extra look at your ticket and <b id="mwAWg">ensure you are at the right airport.</b></p> <p id="mwAWk">You should be able to ride a motorcoach or hire a service taxi from one of the booths after you clear customs. The rate for a taxi from Ezeiza international airport to Buenos Aires is AR$130, the rate from the Jorge Newbery domestic airport to town is AR$40 (Mar 2012). You can now also ride an Uber from Ezeiza, the fare is sometimes dynamic and much lower than a taxi, and is recommended to send an SMS or call your driver, since they may need to coordinate the pick up spot with you.</p> <p id="mwAWo">If visiting another city there are a number of airports throughout the country. Many find it far easier to travel to a neighboring country and then take a short distance hop to the smaller airport. All major cities in Argentina and major tourist destinations like Mendoza, Perito Moreno and Iguazu Falls have airports nearby. There are several national airlines, with different levels of service. In general flying gets you everywhere quickly and cheaply (relatively). Although the buses in Argentina are among the most comfortable in the world and are reasonably priced, travelling takes a lot of time because of the distances and slow road travel involved.</p> <p id="mwAWs">Passengers leaving Ezeiza Airport no longer have to pay the "departure tax" of US$29 (US$8 to Uruguay and domestic flights) after check-in, as they are now included in the prices of the tickets.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="17" id="mwAWw"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBGg"><h3 id="By_train">By train</h3><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBGk"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBGo">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=17" title="Edit section: By train" id="mwBGs"><span id="mwBGw">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBG0">]</span></span></div> <p id="mwAW0">There are no long-distance international services to Argentina, only a short-distance train from <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Encarnación" title="Encarnación" id="mwAW4">Encarnación</a> (<a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Paraguay" title="Paraguay" id="mwAW8">Paraguay</a>) to <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Posadas" title="Posadas" id="mwAXA">Posadas</a>.

Comparing Argentinian coach buses to those in the United States would be insulting to Argentina, for they have much higher standards than those like Greyhound.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="19" id="mwAX4"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBHQ"><h3 id="By_boat">By boat</h3><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBHU"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBHY">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: By boat" id="mwBHc"><span id="mwBHg">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBHk">]</span></span></div> <p id="mwAX8">Regular catamarans routes link <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Buenos_Aires" title="Buenos Aires" id="mwAYA">Buenos Aires</a> with <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Montevideo" title="Montevideo" id="mwAYE">Montevideo</a> and <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Colonia" title="Colonia" id="mwAYI">Colonia</a> in <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Uruguay" title="Uruguay" id="mwAYM">Uruguay</a>.</p> <p id="mwAYQ">The <b id="mwAYU"><a rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" href="http://www.buquebus.com/" class="external text" id="mwAYY">Buquebus</a></b> ferry service operates between Buenos Aires, Argentina, and both Colonia del Sacramento and Montevideo, Uruguay.

Since regional train service is limited and plane tickets are more expensive, bus travel is the most common way to travel from city to city within Argentina. It is not as cheap as it was before, with about US$4-5 for each hour of travelling (Puerto Iguazú to Buenos Aires about US$100).</p> <p id="mwAaw">In Buenos Aires, a city bus is called a <i id="mwAa0">colectivo</i> or <i id="mwAa4">bondi</i> while a long distance, intercity bus is called a <i id="mwAa8">micro</i> or <i id="mwAbA">omnibus</i>; this is not always true though, usage varies somewhat in provincial areas.. The hub of this network is definitely Buenos Aires' <i id="mwAbE">Terminal de Omnibus de Retiro</i>; it has up to 2,000 bus arrivals and departures per day, and multiple companies serve most destinations. Buses arrive and depart from a total of 75 platforms, and in order to buy your ticket you will have to choose between about 200 ticket booths situated on the upper level of the terminal.</p> <p id="mwAbI">The more expensive buses generally offer high-quality service, and for distances longer than 200<span typeof="mw:Entity" id="mwAbM"> </span>km, it is common to have food served on board. There is generally a good amount of legroom, and many buses have seats that recline horizontally into beds (<i id="mwAbQ">called camas</i>) making them a lot like travelling business class on a plane. The best category with completely reclining seats is normally called <i id="mwAbU">cama suite</i>, but other names such as <i id="mwAbY">tutto leto</i>, <i id="mwAbc">ejecutivo</i> , <i id="mwAbg">cama vip</i> or <i id="mwAbk">salon real</i> are also in use. Somewhat cheaper seats only recline partially (<i id="mwAbo">semi-camas</i>), or not at all (<i id="mwAbs">servicio común</i>). Every service belongs to one of five official comfort classes with minimum requirements that are prescribed by law in order to facilitate comparisons. The better buses will provide everything you need, while for the lower categories it may be a good idea to take drinks and food with you, as well as toilet paper and ear plugs. If the trip is really long <i id="mwAbw">e.g. more than 12 hours</i> it's definitely better to spend a few more bucks and pay for a better bus service. If travelling with a large bag or suitcase bring a handful of coins to tip the porter that heaves your pack in and out of the taxi and bus.</p> <p id="mwAb0">Remember that, although buses usually <i id="mwAb4">arrive</i> at their destination a little late, they almost always <i id="mwAb8">leave</i> on time. Do not think that the relaxed approach carries over to bus departure times!</p> <p id="mwAcA">More information on bus schedules and fares is available on the webpages of the online ticket resellers <a rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" href="http://www.plataforma10.com/" class="external text" id="mwAcE">Plataforma 10</a>, <a rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" href="https://www.centraldepasajes.com.ar/cdp/default.aspx" class="external text" id="mwAcI">Central de Pasajes</a>.

While in the 19th century the rail network rivaled that of the US or many European countries in density, speed and quality as befitted a nation among the richest in the world, the declining fortunes of Argentina in the 20th century hit the railway, too. The railways were nationalized during Juan Domingo Perón's first term and remained state-owned until they were privatized under the government of Carlos Menem. However, the railways have since made yet another U-turn and a new state-owned railway was created in 2015. The government has promoted the re-establishment of long-distance passenger trains, although most lines still operate at a low frequency (one or two departures weekly). The rail network is very limited, and intercity buses offer better service and faster rides. Train fares are <i id="mwAdQ">very</i> cheap, often only a quarter of the bus fare. The <a rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" href="https://www.argentina.gob.ar/transporte/trenes-argentinos" class="external text" id="mwAdU">website</a> is a bit hard to navigate and Spanish only.</p> <p id="mwAdY"><b id="mwAdc">Local travel</b> in the Buenos Aires province is by bus and by local trains, with fast trains being the quickest way to get through the city's traffic. The three largest train terminals in Buenos Aires are Retiro, Constitucion and Once. Retiro is a group of three train stations alongside each other with the main long-distance bus (or "micro") terminal behind the furthest of the train terminals (from the city center).</p> <p id="mwAdg">One of the major <b id="mwAdk">long distance</b> train operators is <a rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" href="https://www.argentina.gob.ar/trenes-argentinos/pasajes-larga-distancia" class="external text" id="mwAdo">Trenes Argentinos</a>, which departs from Retiro (Buenos Aires) to Rosario, Córdoba and Tucumán, and from Constitución (Buenos Aires) to Bahía Blanca.

Tickets can be <a rel="mw:ExtLink nofollow" href="https://webventas.sofse.gob.ar/" class="external text" id="mwAd0">bought online</a> with a 5% discount and with credit card. Even though, it does not allow for the selection of a foreign passport ID when buying a ticket, you can enter your number (and letters) under <i id="mwAd4">DNI</i>, which will be accepted in the train.

Patagonia, in the South of Argentina, is a popular driving location among tourists due to the breathtaking views across many miles of open land.</p> <p id="mwAgE">Argentina generally recognizes valid drivers' licences from foreign jurisdictions. Drivers must be over 21. Car rental is readily available throughout Argentina, though it is a bit expensive compared with other forms of transportation.</p> <p id="mwAgI">Traffic regulations in Argentina are generally the same as in Europe and the U.S., but the locals often ignore the regulations. On roads and highways it's mandatory to have car lights on, even during daytime.</p> <p id="mwAgM">Highways are limited to the areas around large cities. Most of the country is connected by paved unlit two-lane roads (<i id="mwAgQ">rutas</i>) shared by buses, cars, and large trucks. Some places are accessible only by gravel or dirt roads. Indeed, some main roads in southern Argentina are unsealed, leading to 4x4 vehicles being more popular. This is particularly the case in the south. It is important to travel with a good map, and to be well informed about your route distances, road conditions and the estimated travel time.</p> <p id="mwAgU">In many small towns, particularly in the north, they may ration gasoline to ensure they have enough to sell until the next refuelling truck arrives.

As a result, hitchhiking has become more acceptable among the younger generation, and raising a thumb at a highway is a symbol most people understand.</p> <p id="mwAgw">Hitchhiking in addition is a great and inexpensive way to get to know the real Argentina and its people. If you do get a ride, you will in general be treated with much generosity: Argentinians are very friendly and interested. Due to the lack of budget accommodation in remote regions and even larger cities off the touristy routes, as well as because of the large distances, it is advisable to carry a tent with you. There are many opportunities along the main highways to put it up<span typeof="mw:Entity" id="mwAg0">—</span>sometimes a little search is necessary. This way you can discover Argentina (at least its south) even with the most limited budget: €300 for 4-5 weeks is possible and still see the interesting and picturesque sights.</p> <p id="mwAg4">Everything south and including the La Pampa Province is comfortable and easy to hitchhike. Only infrequent traffic (through the center), other hitchhikers (near <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/El_Chalten" title="El Chalten" id="mwAg8">El Chalten</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/El_Calafate" title="El Calafate" id="mwAhA">El Calafate</a> and especially <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/El_Bolsón" title="El Bolsón" id="mwAhE">El Bolsón</a>) or bad weather might set you back. Hence, always have a backup plan (bus, tent, hike, etc.) and simply stay confident. You might in addition take a route which might seem longer, but is in the end much faster, i.e. Ruta 3 is very easy due to the high traffic and few competitors, but <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Ruta_40" title="Ruta 40" class="mw-redirect" id="mwAhI">Ruta 40</a> has far less traffic, more competitors and is generally slower due to its conditions. Either way, many helpful tips can also be found in the <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Hitchhiking" title="Hitchhiking" id="mwAhM">hitchhiking guide of Wikivoyage</a>.</p> <p id="mwAhQ">Nevertheless, near Buenos Aires, Mendoza and Cordoba it is considerably more difficult to hitchhike, and the thumb of a woman is significantly more successful than the thumb of a man. A single man should count on long hours of waiting or simply luck in these regions. Just try it once or twice to find out whether it is possible where you are. Nevertheless, even though as woman it might be more successful, be cautious and vary especially as a solo woman: and never fall asleep and remain on the main roads.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="27" id="mwAhU"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBKQ"><h3 id="On_foot_and_navigation">On foot and navigation</h3><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBKU"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBKY">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=27" title="Edit section: On foot and navigation" id="mwBKc"><span id="mwBKg">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBKk">]</span></span></div> <p id="mwAhY">Argentina is an excellent place for hiking and trekking, both in the western Andes, southern Tierra del Fuego and the wide Patagonia, providing many interesting trails.

It can also be employed as a phrase known to someone you don't remember their names. Ex: "Escúchame, Che,...." Sometimes it is peppered throughout the speech, similar to the English phrase "yo," as in "What's up, yo?" Nonetheless, communication will not be a problem for any Spanish speaker.</p> <p id="mwAjI">Argentines will communicate with each other using lunfardo, a street dialect or slang. It is used together with Spanish by replacing nouns with their synonyms in lunfardo. As opposed to changing the original meaning, it just makes the phrase more colourful. An important aspect of lunfardo is that it is only spoken. For example, one knows the word dinero (money), but may use the word "guita" in order to refer to the same things.

In short, the Argentine government established a new exchange rate for such transactions, called the "MEP" rate. As of December 2022, major international credit cards such as Visa began to process transactions at the new MEP rate. At the end of January, when the black market exchange rate was about 375 ARS/USD, Visa processed transactions at 330 ARS/USD. In addition, foreigners using foreign credit cards at hotels in Argentina are not charged the 21% VAT charged to Argentines.</p> <p id="mwAvA">Credit cards are used less commonly in Argentina than in the USA or Europe. Many businesses in the city accept them and you can expect any major chain — supermarkets, fast food, clothing stores, etc. — to also accept them. The standard 10% tip in restaurant is often expected to be paid in cash, even when you pay the bill by credit card. Bear in mind, tipping is only expected when the establishment does <i id="mwAvE">not</i> already charge you for "cubiertos" (literally, utensils. In practice it means "table service").</p> <p id="mwAvI">If you use a debit or credit card, the checkout operator in places like supermarkets will often require you to present both your card and a form of identification such as a drivers' licence. Present both simultaneously at checkout and with confidence. A lack of confidence will lead to a request for your passport as identification. For larger purchases such as long-distance bus tickets you will need to present your passport and your credit card. Although this makes shopping difficult, do try to keep your passport in a location such as a hotel-room safe.</p> <p id="mwAvM">PIN cards have become the most common ones and should be accepted anywhere, as well as magnetic band cards. PINs should be accepted but if not, the shop attendant will ask you to sign the invoice. Contactless credit cards have begun to be accepted as of 2023.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="48" id="mwAvQ"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading4" id="mwBSI"><h4 id="Traveller's_checks"><span id="Traveller.27s_checks" typeof="mw:FallbackId"></span>Traveller's checks</h4><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBSM"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBSQ">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=48" title="Edit section: Traveller's checks" id="mwBSU"><span id="mwBSY">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBSc">]</span></span></div> <p id="mwAvU">They are rarely used and may be difficult to exchange, but there is an American Express office at San Martin Plaza in <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Buenos_Aires" title="Buenos Aires" id="mwAvY">Buenos Aires</a> that will take American Express' Traveller's Checks.

Some restaurants already charge customers with "cubiertos" (table service). In these cases tipping is not expected. Sometimes rounding up or telling them to "keep the change" is enough on small checks, deliveries, gasoline tenders, etc. Leaving at least a 10% tip is considered kind and polite at restaurants, cafes, hotels, beauty parlors, barbers, ushers and car-washes. Tipping bartenders is not customary. Leaving no tip when feeling unsatisfied is not an uncommon gesture, and it's interpreted as such. Taxi drivers do not expect to be tipped.</p> <p id="mwAvo">Another local custom is to tip the ushers in theatres and opera houses when they're also in charge of handing out the programmes; one may request one without tipping, at the risk of being considered cheap.</p> <p id="mwAvs">Service fees are included in most upscale hotels and restaurants, usually around 15%.

Buenos Aires' signature European-South American style overflows with unique art pieces, <i id="mwAv4">art deco</i> furniture, and antiques. Local fashion designers, who are becoming a source of inspiration for the U.S. and European high-end markets, compose their collections based on lots of leather, wools, woven fabrics and delicate laces with a gaucho twist. At times, the exchange rate can present good value for international tourists.</p> <p id="mwAv8">Fashionable clothing and leather products can be found in most commercial areas; jackets, boots and shoes are easily available. However, Buenos Aires has a relatively mild climate, so truly cold-weather gear is harder to find here. Long coats or heavy gloves may not be in stock; similarly, jeans and other basics have a thin construction compared with those in cooler countries. The Andes regions and Patagonia are considerably colder in the winter, so thick clothing is much easier to find here.</p> <p id="mwAwA">Electronics are not cheap, as they are subject to heavy import tariffs. The price of music, books, and movies lags slightly behind changes in the exchange rate and can offer a bargain if the volatile exchange rates are in your favour.</p> <p id="mwAwE">Most free-standing shops in Buenos Aires are open 10:00-20:00 on weekdays, and some of them also Saturdays and Sundays, depending on what area of the city they are in. Enclosed malls, however, set their own hours, and are also open on the weekends.</p> <p id="mwAwI">Most places outside of the city of Buenos Aires, where most stores remain open during a siesta, still observe a siesta from approximately noon until 16:00; almost all businesses are closed during this time. The precise closing hours vary from store to store, according to the preferences of the owner. Shops and offices generally open again in the evening until 21:00 or 22:00.</p> </section></section><section data-mw-section-id="51" id="mwAwM"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2" id="mwBTQ"><h2 id="Eat">Eat</h2><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBTU"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBTY">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=51" title="Edit section: Eat" id="mwBTc"><span id="mwBTg">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBTk">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb" id="mwAwQ"><a href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/File:ArgentinaSteak.jpg" class="mw-file-description" id="mwAwU"><img resource="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/File:ArgentinaSteak.jpg" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/ArgentinaSteak.jpg/220px-ArgentinaSteak.jpg" decoding="async" data-file-width="2576" data-file-height="1932" data-file-type="bitmap" height="165" width="220" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/ArgentinaSteak.jpg/330px-ArgentinaSteak.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/ArgentinaSteak.jpg/440px-ArgentinaSteak.jpg 2x" class="mw-file-element" id="mwAwY"/></a><figcaption id="mwAwc">Bife de chorizo</figcaption></figure> <dl about="#mwt111" typeof="mw:Transclusion" id="mwAwg" data-mw='{"parts":[{"template":{"target":{"wt":"see also","href":"./Template:See_also"},"params":{"1":{"wt":"Argentine cuisine"}},"i":0}}]}'><dd><i>See also: <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Argentine_cuisine" title="Argentine cuisine">Argentine cuisine</a></i></dd></dl> <p id="mwAwk">Argentinian breakfasts are somewhat light compared to what those from English-speaking countries are accustomed to. Typically, it consists of a hot drink (coffee, tea, milk) with some toast, medialunas (croissants, literally "halfmoons") or bread.</p> <p id="mwAwo">Hotels typically provide a free buffet consisting of coffee, tea, drinkable yogurt, assorted pastries and toast, fruit and perhaps cereal. These kinds of breakfasts are also readily available in the many cafes.</p> <p id="mwAws">Lunch is a big meal in Argentina, typically taken in the early afternoon. Lunch is so big because dinner is not until late: 20:30 to 21:00 at the earliest, more commonly at 22:00 or even later. Most restaurants do not serve food until then except for pastries or small ham-and-cheese toasted sandwiches (tostados), for afternoon tea 18:00-20:00. Tea is the one meal that is rarely skipped. A few cafés do offer heartier fare all day long, but don't expect anything more substantial than pizza or a milanesa (breaded meat fillets) or a lomito (steak sandwiches) outside of normal Argentine mealtimes. Dinner is usually eaten at 22:00 and typically consists of appetizers, a main course, and desserts.</p> <p id="mwAww">North Americans should beware that Argentinians use the term "entrée" to refer to appetizers. This is common outside of North America but can surprise some Canadians and most Americans. In Argentina the main dish is a "plato principal".</p> <p id="mwAw0">The appetizers in Argentina typically consist of empanadas (baked pastries with a meat filling), chorizo or morcilla (meat or blood sausage), and assortments of achuras (entrails). For a main dish, there is usually bife de chorizo (sirloin or New York Strip steak) and various types of salads. Dessert is often a custard with dulce de leche and whipped cream topping.</p> <p id="mwAw4">Beef is a prominent component of the Argentine diet, and Argentine beef is world-famous for good reason. Argentina and Uruguay are the top 2 countries in meat per capita consumption in the world. Definitely check out Argentine barbecue: asado, sometimes also called parrillada, because it is made on a parrilla, or grill. Food in Argentina is virtually synonymous with beef. The beef is some of the best in the world, and there are many different cuts of meat. Lomo (tenderloin) and bife de chorizo are excellent. "Costillas" (ribs) is considered by locals the real "asado" meat cut and is very tasty. North Americans will see that costillas are different to those at home. Argentinians cut ribs perpendicular to the bone. Having a parrillada dinner is one of the best ways to experience Argentine cuisine; preferably with a bottle of wine and a good amount of salads. In some popular areas, parrilladas are available from small buffets, or street carts and barbecue trailers. Skewers and steak sandwiches can then be purchased to takeaway.</p> <p id="mwAw8">Given that a large portion of Argentines are of Italian, Spanish and French descent, such fare is very widespread and of high quality; pizzerias and specialized restaurants are very common. A convention observed in Argentina is to treat the pasta and sauce as separate items, with each charged separately.</p> <p id="mwAxA">Cafés, bakeries, and ice-cream shops (heladerías) are very popular. Inexpensive and high-quality snacks can be found in most commercial areas, and many have outdoor seating areas.

Although usually drunk hot, <i id="mwAzw">mate</i> can also be served cold, usually known as "tereré"; the version that is preferred in Paraguay and Mato Grosso, Brazil. Mate contains less caffeine than coffee, but contains other vitamins and minerals that give it a stimulating effect, particularly to those who are not used to it. It is naturally rather bitter, so it's not uncommon to add sugar, though it's polite to ask before adding sugar to it. The drinking of mate with friends is an important social ritual in Argentina. The informal tea ceremony is led by a "cebador" or server and people arrange themselves in a "rueda" or wheel.</p> <p id="mwAz0">Argentina is renowned for its excellent selection of <b id="mwAz4">wine</b>. The most popular being Mendoza, whose terrain seems to complement the European grape varietals with interesting notes not present when produced in other climates. The best way to experience and understand the selection of Argentine varietals is one of the many tasting events.</p> <p id="mwAz8">The legal drinking age is officially 18, although most establishments will serve anyone approximately 16 or older. Most restaurants serve a broad range of <b id="mwA0A">liquors</b>. <b id="mwA0E">Beer</b> is offered in drought form in a <i id="mwA0I">chopp</i> (small glass) or served in bottles or cans, and is typically a light, easily drinkable lager. The most popular locally made brands of beer are Quilmes, Isenbeck, Schneider and Brahma (although it's Brazilian). Widely-available imports include Warsteiner, Heineken, Budweiser and Corona. There are now many small pubs and bars in Buenos Aires that brew beer on premises, but most of these offer a poor quality product compared to what is widely available in parts of Europe and the USA. In the Buenos Aires area, the Buller Brewing Company in Recoleta and the Antares Brewery in Mar del Plata offer excellent handcrafted English-style ales. Ask if there are "cervezas artesanales", locally hand crafted beers.</p> <p id="mwA0M"><b id="mwA0Q">Fernet</b> is widely consumed by Argentinians, especially in Córdoba, Santa Fe and Buenos Aires. It came from Italy, and is a very bitter drink made from herbs, with 40% alcohol and dark brown in colour. Due to its bitter taste, it is usually mixed with Coke (served in bars, pubs, clubs), and if you go to an Argentinian house they will have Fernet and Coke to offer you. Also, Fernet is usually served as a digestif after a meal, but may also be enjoyed with coffee and espresso, or mixed into coffee and espresso drinks. It may be enjoyed at room temperature or with ice.</p> <p id="mwA0U">Cider (<i id="mwA0Y">sidra</i>) is the typical drink at celebrations, especially at Christmas.

Exercise extra caution here, don't go to Western Union alone, be careful changing on the street, and bring a lock for your bags, take the $1-2 Uber instead of walking at night. The 500 or so dollars you may bring represents 3 months at the minimum wage. Be careful.</p> <p id="mwA2o">Argentina has a relatively high traffic mortality rate, with about 20 road deaths per day, and with more than 120,000 injured people each year, including tourists. Pedestrians should exercise extreme caution. Do not jaywalk if you do not feel comfortable, and be careful crossing even when allowed.</p> <p id="mwA2s">There is plenty of activity and foot traffic throughout the night. Nice areas have a very thorough police presence, perhaps one officer per 3 blocks, plus store security and auxiliary patrols. Public security in all major cities like <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Buenos_Aires" title="Buenos Aires" id="mwA2w">Buenos Aires</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Córdoba_(city,_Argentina)" title="Córdoba (city, Argentina)" id="mwA20">Córdoba</a> and <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Rosario" title="Rosario" id="mwA24">Rosario</a> is handled by the Federal Police and the National Gendarmerie or the Naval Prefecture, especially in the Puerto Madero area of Buenos Aires.</p> <p id="mwA28">As in any large city, certain particular neighbourhoods in Buenos Aires and other cities are very dangerous. Some shady neighbourhoods include Retiro, Villa Lugano, La Boca and Villa Riachuelo. Ask trusted locals, such as hotel desk staff or police officers, for advice. Pay attention to your environment and trust your instincts. If an area seems questionable, leave.</p> <p id="mwA3A">Many people in the street and in the subway hand out small cards with horoscopes, lottery numbers, pictures of saints, or cute drawings on them. If you take the card, the person will ask for payment. You can simply return the card along with a <i id="mwA3E">no, gracias.</i> or simply in silence if your Spanish is not good. Persistent beggars are usually not dangerous; a polite but firm <i id="mwA3I">no tengo nada</i> ("I don't have anything") and/or hand gestures are usually enough.</p> <p id="mwA3M">Most crimes involve petty theft (pickpockets) in the subway and on crowded city streets, and especially inhabitant from Buenos Aires have a story to tell, which is also why many people carry their bags in front of them. In most cases, if your wallet is stolen, you won't even notice until hours later. However, paying attention to your stuff, will mostly prevent this from happening. Never hang your purse or bag from the back of your chair in a cafe or restaurant<span typeof="mw:Entity" id="mwA3Q">—</span>stealthy theft from such bags is common. Keep your purse or backpack on the floor between your legs while you eat. Petty theft is common but seldom, like in a few other European cities like Paris or Naples. Violent robberies are uncommon, and mostly only happen where you would expect them, at night in a lone street in the wrong quarter. In the unlikely event that you are confronted by a mugger, simply hand over your valuables; they are replaceable and the muggers may be on drugs, drunk, have a knife or a gun.</p> <p id="mwA3U">Popular demonstrations are very common in Buenos Aires, and are best avoided by tourists as these demonstrations sometimes grow into violent confrontations with the police or National Gendarmerie, particularly as they approach the government buildings in the city center.</p> <p id="mwA3Y">Since 2005 the government has cracked down on illegal taxis very successfully. Petty crime continues (like taking indirect routes or, less commonly, giving counterfeits in change). Taxis that loiter in front of popular tourist destinations like the National Museum are looking for tourists. Stay away from them. Your chance of falling prey to a scam increases in these situations. Stopping a taxi a block or two away on a typical city street where others locals would do the same is good choice. Also having small bills will help you avoid issues mentioned, as well you will often find taxis that don't have change for 100 peso notes.</p> <p id="mwA3c">Carry some ID with you, but not your original passport; a copy (easily provided by your own hotel) should be enough.</p> <p id="mwA3g">'Villas' or ghettos, usually composed of wooden or steel plate shacks, should also be avoided due to the high crime rate in these areas. Should you want to visit one of these, you should only do so as part of a guided tour with a reputable guide or tour company.</p> <p id="mwA3k">Drug use is frowned upon by most inhabitants. Alcohol is generally the vice of choice here. <i id="mwA3o">Paco</i>, a crack-like mix of by products from the cocaine manufacturing process, is a serious problem in poor neighbourhoods, and its users should be avoided at all costs.</p> <p id="mwA3s">It was reported in 2007 that security workers at airports were stealing electronics, sun glasses and jewellery from checked luggage. This has not been reported since but it is always wise to keep all valuables in carry-on luggage.</p> <p id="mwA3w">Police officers will often ask for a bribe during a traffic stop, although it is reported they are not overly pushy.</p> <section data-mw-section-id="58" id="mwA30"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading4" id="mwBV4"><h4 id="Natural_disasters">Natural disasters</h4><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBV8"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBWA">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=58" title="Edit section: Natural disasters" id="mwBWE"><span id="mwBWI">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBWM">]</span></span></div> <section data-mw-section-id="59" id="mwA34"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading5" id="mwBWQ"><h5 id="Tornadoes">Tornadoes</h5><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBWU"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBWY">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=59" title="Edit section: Tornadoes" id="mwBWc"><span id="mwBWg">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBWk">]</span></span></div> <p id="mwA38">The central and northern Argentinian provinces (including <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/La_Pampa" title="La Pampa" id="mwA4A">La Pampa</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Santa_Fe_(province,_Argentina)" title="Santa Fe (province, Argentina)" id="mwA4E">Santa Fe</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Buenos_Aires_(province)" title="Buenos Aires (province)" id="mwA4I">Buenos Aires</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Entre_Rios" title="Entre Rios" id="mwA4M">Entre Ríos</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Córdoba_(province,_Argentina)" title="Córdoba (province, Argentina)" id="mwA4Q">Córdoba</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Corrientes" title="Corrientes" id="mwA4U">Corrientes</a>, <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Misiones" title="Misiones" id="mwA4Y">Misiones</a>, the north of <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Río_Negro" title="Río Negro" class="mw-redirect" id="mwA4c">Río Negro</a>, south of <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/San_Luis_(province,_Argentina)" title="San Luis (province, Argentina)" id="mwA4g">San Luís</a>, central and eastern regions of <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Formosa_(province)" title="Formosa (province)" class="mw-redirect" id="mwA4k">Formosa</a> and southeast of <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Santiago_del_Estero" title="Santiago del Estero" class="mw-redirect" id="mwA4o">Santiago del Estero</a> and <a rel="mw:WikiLink" href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Chaco_(Argentina)" title="Chaco (Argentina)" id="mwA4s">Chaco</a> provinces) are part of the <b id="mwA4w">South America Tornado Corridor</b>, the second most tornado-prone area in the world (behind the United States Tornado Alley).

People make contact with right cheeks, and make a light "kiss sound" but not touch the cheek with their lips (only once, two kisses -right and then left- is very rare). When two women, or opposite sexes first meet, it is not uncommon to kiss. Two men will first shake hands if they do not know each other, but will probably kiss when departing, especially if they have spoken for a while. Male friends cheek kiss every time when greeting, it is like a sign of trust. Trying to shake hands when offered a kiss will be considered odd, but never rude especially if you are an obvious foreigner.</p> <p id="mwA7w">In the rest of the country, regular handshaking applies. Also women will greet by kissing as described above, but it's reserved to other women and to men they are acquainted with.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="65" id="mwA70"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBYg"><h3 id="Football">Football</h3><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBYk"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBYo">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=65" title="Edit section: Football" id="mwBYs"><span id="mwBYw">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBY0">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb" id="mwA74"><a href="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/File:Fotodela22.jpg" class="mw-file-description" id="mwA78"><img resource="//en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/File:Fotodela22.jpg" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Fotodela22.jpg/220px-Fotodela22.jpg" decoding="async" data-file-width="1280" data-file-height="960" data-file-type="bitmap" height="165" width="220" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Fotodela22.jpg/330px-Fotodela22.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Fotodela22.jpg/440px-Fotodela22.jpg 2x" class="mw-file-element" id="mwA8A"/></a><figcaption id="mwA8E">As in much of South America, many consider football more than just another sport</figcaption></figure> <p id="mwA8I">Football is the most popular sport in the country and many Argentines are passionate, die-hard fans of the sport.

However, punctuality is expected for business meetings.</p> <p id="mwA8g">Long-distance Buses and flights usually leave on time, but in local public transportation delays are common, especially in big cities.</p> </section><section data-mw-section-id="67" id="mwA8k"><div class="mw-heading mw-heading3" id="mwBZQ"><h3 id="Sensitive_issues">Sensitive issues</h3><span class="mw-editsection" id="mwBZU"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBZY">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Argentina&action=edit&section=67" title="Edit section: Sensitive issues" id="mwBZc"><span id="mwBZg">edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" id="mwBZk">]</span></span></div> <p id="mwA8o">Avoid talking about the Falkland Islands (<i id="mwA8s">Islas Malvinas</i>) and the dispute about Falklands War, with their English name. Argentines do not refer to the islands as "Falklands", but "Malvinas". These are very sensitive issues for many Argentines and can trigger a strong reaction and create an uncomfortable situation for you.</p> <p id="mwA8w">There is a degree of distrust and resentment towards the United Kingdom, particularly among older Argentines, especially due to the Falklands War. Avoid wearing any English and British symbols due to the above mentioned reasons. English and British flags as well as English national football (soccer) tops (who are rivals of the Argentine national football team during the World Cup) are definitely to be avoided. Although no assaults on people wearing them have been recorded, people might be very upset about them and you are very likely to receive very icy looks and treatment from the population.</p> <p id="mwA80"><b id="mwA84">Domestic politics</b> are highly polarising and sensitive. Argentina has had a long history of political instability since the 1930s, and most ordinary folk are incredibly frustrated with their government and political leaders. The Perón years and the military juntas are particularly sensitive subjects. While it's not a social faux pas to discuss politics (Argentines tend to be vocal about political issues anyways), do not share your opinions on Argentine politics, even if you know a thing or two about the country's political landscape ― your opinions will not be welcomed and it may cause your Argentine counterpart(s) to think you are meddling in their country's affairs.</p> <p id="mwA88">Do not compare Argentina with Brazil and Chile, because they are considered rivals, especially in the economic sphere.</p> <p id="mwA9A">Avoid comparing regional foods. This too can be a sensitive subject, as recipes and key ingredients vary from province to province.</p> <p id="mwA9E">Argentines take pride in their beef, and asking for ketchup or barbecue sauce on a steak is disrespectful.

Inserting the SIM card into your unlocked mobile phone should work, although to register the SIM you might have to enter your passport (or any 9 digit) number. You then have your personal Argentinian phone number, which is very useful to keep in touch with other travellers, either by calling or by writing text messages. Calls cost around ARS1 per minute.
