Sailing Into Buenos Aires On The Peace Boat – World’s Most Beautiful Bookstore?

Sailing into Buenos Aires on the Peace Boat world cruise, I explore El Ateneo Grand Splendid – a 1919 theatre turned bookstore, regularly named one of the most beautiful in the world. First time in Argentina takes me past the Obelisco, the Hell-Purgatory-Heaven architecture of Palacio Barolo, colorful La Boca, and the rotating Puente de la Mujer. Plus a one-point table tennis loss and a string quartet moment that pulled me straight back to Vienna.

This is episode 11.

  1. This bookstore's café sits on a stage where tango legends once performed. Books or live tango — which one wins for you?
