Continue to San Telmo, Buenos Aires’ most traditional neighbourhood, where you walk through the cobbled streets past old colonial houses, before heading south to La Boca. Retaining a strong European feel, La Boca was once home to the city’s first immigrants and artists, who transformed this area into a must see for travelers looking for some typical South American energy.
