| Calle Defensa in San Telmo |
Visiting the Buenos Aires barrio (neighborhood) of San Telmo
was today’s objective.
Many of San Telmo’s
streets still contain their 17th century cobblestone and are lined with colonial style buildings. Engulfed
with countless antique shops, this barrio is home to Buenos Aires’s most
popular Sunday feria. It attracts tourists from all over the world; in fact, I heard
many English conversations while I walked down Defensa Street.
San Telmo contains the heart of the tango, as
there are many tango parlors in the neighborhood.
