Buenos Aires

The lively Argentinean capital is South America's answer to Paris or Barcelona, exuding European flair in everything from its leafy boulevards and grandiose architecture to Old World cuisine, while not missing a beat on the sexy Latin vibe that permeates it. The porteños (Buenos Aires’ residents) themselves boast a multinational European heritage, having largely descended from the city’s founding Spanish settlers and a successive wave of 19th-century Italian immigrants; in fact, Italian fare remains the most abundant food choice in the city. For a one-stop Paris sampler, stroll Avenida Alvear, where chic boutiques share real-estate with palatial manses, or tour the historic Avenida de Mayo, which was designed to rival Paris' Champs Elysées. If that weren't enough, almost everything the city has to offer can be had at an amazing price: Tuck into a meal with all the trimmings at an upscale restaurant for $30 or be tucked into bed at an elegant boutique hotel for $80. Take that, euro!
