Picnics, Parks & Gardens in Buenos Aires

Ah, to kick back in the greenery of Buenos Aires' parks. Whether you want to stroll, rent bikes, let the kids run loose or throw out a blanket and nap in the sun, nothing says leisure like a day in the park. When you start itching for fresh air and open spaces, it's time to head for one of Buenos Aires' many parks and plazas. A city that enjoys temperate weather for the majority of the year, you're likely to encounter at least a few pleasant moments to be outside - be it an early morning with coffee in Plaza Las Heras, a long and lazy afternoon in Palermo's beautiful pond-side Rosedal, or a warm early evening wandering through the peaceful Recoleta Cemetery. Take the kids to the Jardin Zoological to meet the animals (don't miss the penguin aquarium!); weekends ought to find treasure hunters at the flea market in Parque Centenario. From the solemn, quiet Israeli Embassy Memorial to the lively Japanese Gardens, there are all kinds of activities that can keep you outside, all day (and night!) long.
