In 1880s, there was a proliferation of brothels in Buenos Aires where Tango was played. As time went by, tango shows at brothels became monotonous and in an effort to avoid the publics boredom, the brothels' management hired trios or different musicians' groups, who inspired the public to start dancing. Unexpectedly, these shows became so successful that they started to be more frequent. It is said that this is how tango was originated.

80% of people in BA have pets. On our trip, we saw so many Dog walkers along the way.

We decided to take a bike tour to check out the city and what a beautiful day it was!

La Boca is a very colorful neighbourhood. In the past the people who lived there didn't have enough money to paint their houses. So they used to go to the dock (a few meters away) and ask the people working with the ships to give them some of the paint they used for the ships. So they would get a bit of orange, a bit of blue, a bit of red, etc. That's why they had to paint their housed with different colours.
