Buenos Aires always hides beautiful secrets for those who want to discover the places that not everyone notices, well, still have places to be discovered, but is no longer a secret.
The Hostel Colonial has another tip, this time in Puerto Madero you will find more than cool and fine restaurants, pubs, parties (remember that we have free tickets for Asia de Cuba, one of the best clubs in town) and the famous "Puente de la Mujer", one of the simbols of the port, romantic and nice place to meet friends or date.
Puerto Madero also has museums, galeries, exhibitions, the new and modern ferry, small fields where the argentinian boys get together to play their football.
For nature lovers, there´s the Costanera Sur park just waiting for explorers: A place of entertainment, markets, various activities, walkings and tours. Feel how Buenos Aires is near the river (Río de la Plata).
For lucky backpackers, is also possible to take a free transfer to the "Floating Cassino", one of the main atractions that join people for around the world, players or not. Free entrance, astonishing lights, everything inside 2 ships.
In the early times, the red docks was the registered trademark of Puerto Madero, but now the new buildings in east side (Art District) are changing its traditional image.This sector have an strong development in apartment buildings, many of they in construction phase.Many stores and shops are been open month by month, expanding the offer of services.
