Such a breathtaking place. We had the opportunity to visit back in August and are jealous of our students in Argentina who get to sit and read or grab a cup of coffee - the cafe is on the stage!

Buenos Aires is a great place for a number of majors to study abroad, especially Poli Sci and Business majors. And FYI students on this program have the option to tour three of the tech unicorns in the city and interact with upper-management!

Inside 'The World's Most Beautiful Bookstore' In Argentina National Geographic has named El Ateneo Grand Splendid the top shop in the world. But that's only where the history of the 100-year-old Buenos Aires building, once a palatial theater, begins.
