La Boca

The vibrant working-class neighborhood of La Boca, just south of San Telmo, served as the first port of Buenos Aires. Many who settled here were immigrants from Genoa, Italy, and the district retains much of its Italian heritage although time as a tourist center is taking its toll on La Boca's authenticity. You can still enjoy inexpensive Italian fare in a cantina along Avenida Patricios.
