Our guide
Following the 1994 AMIA bombing, security at every Jewish institution in Buenos Aires is tight - synagogues included. To visit Templo Libertad, for instance, you need to send your passport number and personal details in advance; without pre-registration you're not getting in, even just to look from outside.
Our recommendations
- Base yourself around the vibrant Once neighborhood - home to the kosher parrillas and striking synagogues.
- Check availability of Shabbat and holiday meals at the kosher restaurants or the local Chabad house at least a few days in advance.
Stay in the kosher area of Buenos Aires
For Shabbat in Buenos Aires, base yourself in or near Once / Abasto - Beit Jabad Once (Chabad house listed on the site) is within walking distance from there, along with the other kosher listings for the city.
