In the quarter of San Telmo, in a Sunday afternoon, people dance in the square. Tango, the art of Argentina, is actual as ever. |
Walking in Buenos Aires in a hot Sunday afternoon is a very different way to visit the Argentinian capital.
Streets are deserted around Plaza de Mayo and the Casa Rosada, even along the main shopping street Avenida Florida only few tourists are wondering about.
Where the locals went?
The ones who remained in town are strolling leisurely in the narrow streets of the picturesque old quarter of San Telmo, where a huge flea market is on in a Sunday.
Many other Portenos went for a walk in the beautiful park Tres de Febrero and some others enjoy a light breeze in the old docks of Buenos Aires at Puerto Madero.
Hope you enjoy your visit in Buenos Aires and our photos below!

Fileteados - The wonderful artistic drawing, with stylised lines and flowered, climbing plants, typical of Buenos Aires. Signs, taxis and buses are adorned with fileteados. Skilled fileteadores work in San Telmo's Market. |
Puerto Madero - The old docks of Buenos Aires are now a trendy area with bars and restaurants, where locals enjoy an afternoom walk, nice breeze from the sea and some good music. |
Parque Tres de Febrero, in the elegant quarter of Palermo, is a beautiful park where locals practise some sport or just enjoy the quiet of its gardens. |
