The Best Attractions In Villa General Belgrano

Visiting Villa General Belgrano in Córdoba, Argentina

One of the more quirky towns you can visit in Argentina is Villa General Belgrano. The town itself, of recent German roots, feels like something straight out of Bavaria, Germany. Here you'll find Schnitzel, sauerkraut and craft beer. Along with the ample opportunities you have to purchase souvenirs one of the nicest features of this place is that you're never far from nature. With many scenic paths to explore you can quickly move away from the tourist center. Overall, it was great visiting here because it is nearby where Audrey grew up as a child. Don't think it is cheap here. The prices, as of today, are rather expensive (think Europe and North America) and we left spending a lot more than we anticipated; however, we found some bargains with items such as ice cream and wine.

Visiting Villa General Belgrano in Córdoba, Argentina Travel Video Transcript:

Well, welcome to Germany. Or should I say the Germany of South America. Today we're visiting a town called Villa General Belgrano which has very German roots. Like walking around here you're almost feeling like you've been transported back to Bavaria. And this is a town that I'm very familiar with because I actually grew up in a local village that was only 30 minutes away from here. So we're going to be taking a little tour of the town. I'm excited to show Sam around. And maybe we'll try a few German delicacies. Some beer, pastries, who knows. We'll see what is on the menu.

So this is kind of a cool sign because it shows all of the different festivals that happen here throughout the year. And we have a Christmas fair, an Alpine chocolate festival, a Viennese pastry festival and also Oktoberfest. Oktoberfest. Where they drink beer in their giant pints. Prost!

So it is early evening now. About 7 or 7:30 pm and we're visiting a little craft market in the town. And they have a lot of really strange and unique things here. Like we've seen dinosaurs, you buy mate, you can jewelry, musical instruments. It is just very artsy. I'm seeing lots of fairies as well. I bet you're wondering if they are real or not. Oh yeah, that is what I've been pondering all day.

Hello there little magical elf. Are you a good elf or a bad elf? I don't talk to nobody.

So we are now in the ecological park. Yeah, and it is just like a turnoff from the main strip. It is amazing how within five minutes you're away from the touristy area and you're out experiencing greenery and an escape from the hustle and bustle. Yeah, can you hear the sound of the stream. The sound of nature.

So since we're in such a German town that means we have to have a beer, right? Yeah, apparently you get kicked out of the town if you don't have a beer. Oh ho! So yes, we're waiting for our drinks. We ordered Chopp. I'm having a blonde, you're having red. And I'm thirsty. Hmmm, good.

Ready for your ice cold craft beer? Rojo! I think it is really funny that you ordered the red beer and you're a red head and I ordered the blonde one. We didn't even mean to do that did we. Haha, the joke is on us. This beer is great. This is local craft beer and it has been really hot today so this is very refreshing.

Okay, so Argentina is not very cheap right now but there is one thing that is super affordable. And that is...that is ice cream. Ice cream. Ice cream and wine at the current moment are cheaper than water. So we've been eating a lot of that and drinking a lot of wine. And I have one of my favorite flavors here. I have dulce de leche ice cream con brownie. So it has a brownie as well. Brownie chunks in there...oh la lah.

So Sam, you've had a couple of days here Villa General Belgrano. What are your impressions of the place so far? Yeah, it's a fun quirky town. Definitely geared towards tourists. Like you said, it feels like it is straight out of Bavaria. It is kind of a bit of a fantasy land. It is fun. I love that it is in the woods. It is near nature. You can go for lots of scenic walks. And I also like that they have really good German food and awesome craft beer.

This is part of our Travel in Argentina series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Argentine culture, Argentine arts, Argentine foods, Argentine religion, Argentine cuisine and Argentine people.

Comida Alemana en Argentina + Paseo por Villa General Belgrano, Córdoba

Para nuestro último día en Villa General Belgrano, Córdoba, salimos a pasear por el pueblo y comer comida alemana. Comenzamos el día con un rico desayuno en Café Rissen, luego subimos al Mirador para disfrutar las vistas de las Sierras y el pueblo, y después paseamos por Paseo dei Fiori y Paseo Los Troncos - dos galerias comerciales donde uno puedo comprar todo tipo de souvenirs al estilo alemán. Para el almuerzo, fuimos a Blumen, un restaurante que se especializa en comida alemana y cervezas artesanales. Nosotros pedimos la Costeleta Blumen con chucrut, hongos, papas, manzanas - una porción para 2-3 personas! También probamos la cerveza Berlin - una rubia y un roja, y para el postre un Apfelstrudel con helado y una copa Selva Negra. Riquísimo!

Continuamos el Viaje por Córdoba | De La Cumbrecita a Villa General Belgrano en Bus

En este video continuamos nuestro viaje por la Provincia de Córdoba. Antes de irnos de La Cumbrecita, tomamos un último desayuno en Edelweiss, les damos un tour de nuestra cabaña, y nos despedimos de nuestro amigo el gato Miausi. Después de pasar unos lindos días visitando el pueblo peatonal de La Cumbrecita, nos subimos a un bus, y bajamos a Villa General Belgrano, otro pueblo que también fue fundado por imigrantes alemanes. No hicimos mucho durante nuestro primer día en Belgrano - salimos a comer una pizza en Amilcar y luego pasamos la tarde en la piscina del hotel Blumenau donde nos alojamos. En el próximo video recorremos un poco más del pueblo!

Buenos Aires, Argentina trip 2016 (HD1080p)

Buenos Aires, Argentina trip 2016 - Recoleta Cemetery, Plaza de Mayo, Tango Argentina, Caminito
Travel Videos HD, World Travel Guide
BA is an amazing city, and I'm proud to call it my birthplace. It's an astonishing metropolis that looks a bit like Europe, but with an edgy Latin American twist. Porteños (the city's residents) are passionate, opinionated and – once you get past their hard-city facade – very friendly. I love walking among them along the busy avenues, taking in the street life and often the craziness that goes along with it. This is a very special place, beautiful in its own unique way, resilient and creative. It's the kind of city travelers fall in love with, dream about and then move to!

Tango
======
Argentina's famous dance is possibly the country's greatest contribution to the outside world, a steamy strut that's been described as 'making love in the vertical position'. Folklore says it began in the bordellos of long-ago Buenos Aires, when men waiting for their 'ladies' passed time by dancing amongst themselves. Today, glamorized tango shows are supremely entertaining with their grand feats of athleticism. You'll also find endless venues for perfecting your moves, from salons to milongas (dance events) to cafes. Just realize that some people become addicted – and can spend a lifetime perfecting this sensual dance.

Food
=====
Fancy some Indian, French, Vietnamese, Lebanese, Thai, Scandinavian, Mexican, Brazilian, Peruvian, Armenian or American during your stay in BA? No problem. But for many travelers, it's the city's carnivorous pleasures that shine. Satisfying that craving for juicy steaks isn't hard to do in the land that has perfected grilling those wonderfully flavorful sides of beef. Parrillas (steakhouses) sit on practically every corner and will offer up myriad cuts, from bife de chorizo (sirloin) to vacio (flank steak) to ojo de bife (rib eye). Vegetarians, you've been warned!

Shopping
=========
It's no joke: Buenos Aires is a shopper's paradise. The city is laced with shopping streets lined with heaps of clothing and shoe stores, leather shops and nearly everything else you can think of. Large shopping malls are modern and family-friendly, offering designer goods, food courts and even children's play areas. But perhaps the city's best shopping is in Palermo Viejo, where countless upscale boutiques live; these offer avant-garde clothing, unique housewares and fun souvenirs. And let's not forget San Telmo, where antiques aficionados flock; the Sunday fair here is famous and entertaining, and will easily fill up a long afternoon.

See in Buenos Aires, Argentina
===================
La Boca has the Caminito pedestrian street with arts and crafts. There is also a river cruise you can take from there where you can see a huge picturesque metal structure across the river. You can try and catch a rowboat to Avellaneda on the other side of the water for 0.50 pesos, but you will have to try your luck as the rower may not allow you on citing that it's dangerous. La Boca is famous for Tango and you can often catch glimpses of Tango dancers practicing in the streets. If you fancy having a picture taking with a tango dancer you can but expect to pay a small fee. In addition to tango, La Boca is famous for its football, and you can take a tour of the La Bombonera Stadium where the buildings are painted in bright colors.

There is no Subte to La Boca, but many buses go there.

The Cementerio de la Recoleta: This is where all the rich families in Buenos Aires have their final resting places. Expect to see big ornate tombs. Be sure to visit the tomb of Eva Perón, the daughter of an aristocrat and beloved First Lady who, despite having the most visited tomb in the cemetery, is considered by many to be too close toward the people for eternal interment in Recoleta.

The Palermo Viejo district: This is a trendy neighborhood with charming cobblestone streets, bookstores, bars, and boutiques; definitely better than the touristic San Telmo area for a nighttime excursion. The Palermo station, on D line, is the closest metro stop.

San Telmo: Best visited on Sundays when tourists and locals alike flood in to attend the weekly street fair and flea market. Be watchful for good deals, and bring in your own water, as it's quite expensive here. On Sunday nights, there is a tango performance in the lovely plaza, which is specifically for tourists. (Visit an underground tango club for the most amateur experience. If there is advertising, or disco ball, then it's not an amateur)

The Best Steaks in Buenos Aires, Argentina (feat. Samuel & Audrey)

Together with Sam & Audrey we were searching for the best Steak in Buenos Aires and we found it - here are our 2 favorite restaurants!
My guide for Buenos Aires:

Make sure to watch the second part on the channel of Samuel & Audrey:


Steak is an important part of the Argentine culture as the country is famous for its good beef. A visit to a Parilla is one of the MUST DO's when you are visiting the country. Especially in Buenos Aires you can find many good places to enjoy some good Bife de Chorizo or Lomo.

This is why we were searching for a place where the food is delicious but not too pricey. Before we filmed this episode we tried out several restaurants and steak houses (Parillas) in the capital of Argentina. At the end we went to my favorite place in Palermo and to Sam & Audres's favorite spot in Recoleta.

It was so much fun doing this collab with Sam & Audrey and Kristin. Go and checkout their channels, subscribe and watch their travel videos - those guys are all very inspiring travelers!
