Has a bit of everything! Great tango lessons for beginners and advanced. If you just want to try a class to see what tango is all about, this is the place. Even at the 8pm or 10pm classes, there won't be too many people who aren't dancing, so you'll feel comfortable learning the ropes on the dance floor. Afterward, there's great beer and empanadas to eat while watching the expert tango dancers take the floor!

Essentials
Most people buy vegetables and fruits from one of the many vegetable bodegas in the neighborhood. For all other essentials, Coto is a great choice. Very budget-friendly, though, they're a bit slow with foreign credit cards so check out takes a while. Carrefour, another grocery store, is two blocks up the street from Coto.

Parks & Nature
We're about a 1.25 mile run away from Los Bosques - and if you're into running, this is a perfect route! You can run around the lake, or take the back path underneath the train tracks to get another lake and bridge. If walking, you can rent the paddle boats, or stroll through the rose garden.
