Argentina & Buenos Aires Gay Travel

Iguazu Falls from Argentina

Iguazú Falls are waterfalls of the Iguazú River located on the border of the Argentine province of Misiones and the Brazilian state of Paraná. The falls divide the river into the upper and lower Iguazu.

The falls can be reached from the two main towns on either side of the falls: Puerto Iguazú in the Argentine province of Misiones, and Foz do Iguaçu in the Brazilian state of Paraná as well as from Ciudad del Este (Paraguay) on the other side of the Parana river from Foz do Iguaçu. The falls are shared by the Iguazú National Park (Argentina) and Iguaçu National Park (Brazil). These parks were designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1984 and 1986, respectively.

Amerika, another Buenos Aires gay club

Argentina’s gay nightlife is well known as “huge”. The capital city, Buenos Aires, has around 15 gay clubs, discos and pubs for you to enjoy. There are gay dance clubs in the main cities accross the countries as well: La Plata, Córdoba, Rosario and many others.

Let’s see 5 examples:

• Glam, a well stablished gay club in Palermo neighborhood -Buenos Aires. A place usually recommended for tourists. Average is 30’s.
• Bahrein, hosts gay parties in a relaxed way, as it is not part of the original gay circuit. This gay disco is at the Buenos Aires’ Microcentro (town center), very close to the hotels’ area.
• Verona, a gay club only for women. A very funny experience. Located at Buenos Aires center, very close to the Obelisco.
• Juana, a fun gay pub and club at La Plata, 50km from Buenos Aires. Young guys and good music.
• Gotika, very nice place in Rosario, 400km from Buenos Aires. Young people. Not as relaxed as Buenos Aires. The local scene is less opened than Buenos Aires.

These are just the first recommendations. We will talk of each one (not just these but all of the gay clubs and discos) and tell you what you can expect and where to go if your time runs out.

Buenos Aires has saunas and darkrooms to offer as well.
