Best: Apr-Jun, Sep · Great: Oct-Mar
Four distinct seasons run through the year here, from June's chill to January's warmth, with rain spread fairly evenly across the calendar rather than concentrated in one stretch. In May, expect highs around 18°C with rain on roughly 8 days of the month.
San Telmo's Sunday antiques market and tango-filled evenings capture the city's atmosphere well, and Recoleta Cemetery — more like an open-air museum of elaborate mausoleums — is worth the visit despite the odd premise. La Boca's colorful Caminito street adds a livelier, more touristy counterpoint.
Try Argentine steak and a glass of Malbec at a classic parrilla.
