One of the most important gay destinations is Buenos Aires.
The Argentine capital was the first Latin American city to legalise gay civil unions, in 2002. That, paired with the spectacular drop in value of the peso, fuelled a gay-tourism boom.
The city's tourism office prints several gay maps, and some officials estimate that gays and lesbians make up 20 per cent of all international tourists.
Gays are also changing some of Argentina's most important symbols. The sensuous tango is now danced openly by same-sex couples, and the city also hosted an international gay soccer tournament last year.
Evita , with the gay icon Madonna, certainly helped put the country into the gay imagination.
Some of the world's most handsome men happen to live in Buenos Aires.
The best places to catch the gay ones are at bars in the Barrio Norte or San Telmo neighbourhoods.
The only crying for Argentina you'll do is when you leave.
