Puerto Madero is a very romantic place, where you can go to chill out a little and Cabildo has a lot of great stores with greeeaat prices comparing to the malls and others stores... you can buy purses for 15 pesos!! La plaza francia and la recoleta itīs a great place to go out at night. it has nice bars, each one with a different theme... and besides the hard rock cafe is in the plaza francia...la recoleta its really a cemitery where all this famous people are berried (including Evita Peron) but they call it all the RECOLETA PLACE. Directions: well, i dont know the address but la recoleta is a place really famous, so as the plaza francia, if you ask anybody in the city they will tell you which bus to take or witch address to go...you can ge

At the end of Corrientes Ave. cross the railroad trucks towards the river and you will be in Puerto Madero. Nice place to walk around. You may head further east and hit Costanera Sur right against the River. There you will also find the reserva Ecologica which is a natural preserve that can be explored on foot.
Sights in Puerto Madero include: Recylced old brick warehouses with trendy restaurants.
Fragata Sarmiento Museum (old navy ship parked in one of the docks), pedestrian bridge designed by Calatrava and a visit to the Hilton and Faena hotels both very new and interesting. In Costanera Sur there is a superb turn of the century fountain all in carved white marble plus other monuments set in a park setting. Leave a Comment Address: Puerto Madero

I've been here a couple of times - once about 3 years ago and once in August 2009.
I found it a fascinating experience - full of history and people's basic desire to overcome any obstacle to create a new life for themselves.
The one complaint that I would have is that they seem very short on exhibits ( there are a lot of enlarged photographs around the walls ) and it would benefit from some colour Models in original clothes / scenesl - say a scene with people disembarking from a ship or newly arrived immigrants working in a shop etc etc
Worth a look in the courtyard and side of building as it gives a real feel of "arrival by sea"
Still, all -in-all, a good place to learn some interesting facts and wile away an hour. Leave a Comment Address: quarter of a mile along the road from Buquebus terDirections: Buquebus Terminal

Puerto Madero is a relatively quiet escape from noisy buses / narrow streets / large buildings / bumping into people scenario of B.A. because it is a Pedestrian Walkway.
I love it here as you get a sense of distance and horizon.
I also love it here because on a nice day you can chill out on a Picada and glass or two of Malbec - in the evening you have any choice of restauraunt at a reasonable price ( they are not all wallet-numbingly expensive ).
My favourite ( at the moment !! ) is Rodizio - great meat / buffet / wine etc
It is a real treat to walk here - I tend to find that my walking pace slows down as I am not " trying to get somewhere" - I'm just enjoying it for what it is.
Bigmac52 Leave a Comment Directions: Basically, any B.A. street - head for the River and you'll end up there.
