The city is safe during the day but once it gets dark I don't recommend walking alone. It is also necessary to be careful if you use your cell phone on the street because it is very common for them to be stolen. I consider public transportation to be safe.

Argentina, nestled on the southeast tip of South America, is a land known for its diverse geographical splendors, dynamic culture, and rich history. This vibrant nation features a stunning contrast between the soaring Andean peaks, lush rainforests of the Gran Chaco, the arid Atacama Desert, the expansive grasslands of Pampas, and the frosty glaciers of Patagonia. Home to the sultry Argentine tango, mouth-watering asado barbecues, and high-quality Malbec wines, it also boasts bustling cities such as its capital Buenos Aires, often referred to as the 'Paris of South America'. Impressive colonial architecture, the passionate football culture, and the iconic gaucho (cowboy) heritage are among the highlights that make Argentina a captivating destination for travelers worldwide.

La Plata, commonly known as the "City of Diagonals", is the capital city of Buenos Aires Province, located in the northeastern part of Argentina. Renowned for its distinctive grid layout interspersed with diagonals and green spaces, it guarantees a fascinating urban exploration experience. Besides its architecture, La Plata boasts a prominent cultural scene with attractions such as the La Plata Museum, one of the largest Natural History museums in the world, and the strikingly unique La Plata Cathedral, one of South America's largest churches. A notable feature of the city is the Paseo del Bosque, a big green area housing a zoo, a botanical garden, and a natural sciences museum that promises a fun-filled family excursion. Situated just 60km away from Buenos Aires, La Plata offers a less hectic yet equally charming Argentine experience.
