Recoleta is considered one of the finest and most expensive areas of the city. It boasts many French style buildings, large green spaces, and first class restaurants.

Outskirts (Comuna 3-15)Mostly residential and not very heavily touristed, but some of these neighborhoods do include important tango clubs and historic architecture, as well as parks and cheap shopping.
