Buenos Aires is a municipality situated in the Cauca Department of Colombia. It forms part of the department's network of municipal jurisdictions and serves as a local administrative centre.
History
The settlement now known as Buenos Aires was established by Europeans in 1551. Historical records attribute its foundation to the explorers Vasco de Guzmán and Alonso de Fuenmayor, who founded the town during the Spanish colonial period.
Today the municipality retains its municipal status within Cauca and is recognised for its local administration and community life within the region.
