Lugnt — redaktionens lugna månad, January summer shutdown

• Risk

  Summer heat and humidity

  1 jan – 25 feb · vanligtvisExtrem värme

  River-plate humidity on top of the heat, and the porteños who can afford to have gone to the coast. Museums and cafés run cold; walking Palermo at three in the afternoon does not work. Källa ↗

  Carnival

  16–17 febStängningar

  Two public holidays and murga groups drumming through the outer neighbourhoods rather than the centre. It is a local, suburban carnival, not a Rio-scale one, and much of the city takes the long weekend away. Källa ↗
