Things to do Puerto Madero: From Port Failure to Touristic Success

We will start our tour at the monument to Juana Azurduy, enjoying a particular view of the historic center and a wide panorama of Puerto Madero. This scenery allows us to understand and put into context the neighborhood of Puerto Madero. We will talk about the curious story of how a failed port was transformed into a thriving tourist destination and avant-garde neighborhood over the decades. From the desire to demonstrate power and money, its subsequent abandonment and its rediscovery in the 90's so that today the neighborhood is home to the best restaurants in the city. We will take a panoramic walk through its picturesque canals, the emblematic warships ARA Sarmiento and ARA Uruguay and their stories, El Puente de la Mujer, symbol of the neighborhood. We will stroll through the residential areas of Puerto Madero along with historic structures of the old port, converted into museums and art galleries. We will inquire about the relationship of the neighborhood with the center, and we will have the opportunity to enjoy the impressive views of the historic center from Puerto Madero in contrast with the avant-garde architecture that was imprinted on the neighborhood. A failure transformed into a success.
