Buenos Aires - sea of houses

Buenos Aires is the capital and largest city of Argentina. The city is located on the western shore of the Río de la Plata. "Buenos Aires" can be translated as "fair winds" or "good airs". Buenos Aires is a multicultural city that is home to multiple ethnic and religious groups, contributing to its culture as well as to the dialect spoken in the city and in some other parts of the country. This is because since the 19th century, the city, and the country in general, has been a major recipient of millions of immigrants from all over the world, making it a melting pot where several ethnic groups live together. Thus, Buenos Aires is considered one of the most diverse cities of the Americas. The Greater Buenos Aires conurbation, which also includes several Buenos Aires Province districts, constitutes the fourth-most populous metropolitan area in the Americas, with a population of around 15.6 million. - scanned slides, Minolta X700
