The Tango developed in the city of
Buenos Aires in the 1800ś. The Tango had a bad reputation among the higher
classes ruling Argentinean society at the time as it was seen as a vulgar
dance.
Crowds would gather at night for the practice of the dance. Regardless of its
poor origins Tango, in time, developed into a national habit and for many
decades was the favorite pastime of just about anybody living in Buenos Aires.
The Argentinean Tango is a phenomenal dance between two people fighting their
inner passion for one another.
The classical dance is very much still a major part of Argentinean culture. The
alluring sound of the Accordion is heard whilst amateurs dance in the streets
for a few pesos.
The bars in Buenos Aires are filled with the Tango and one can go along to an
open Millonga (dance lesson).
The Tango cannot be ignored. So when in Buenos Aires one should do as an
Argentinean and dance the night away with passion and intensity.
What better way to end my Argentinean
trip!
