San Telmo

San Telmo

Highlights of bohemian San Telmo include Sunday strolls, antiques shopping at Feria de San Pedro and surrounding stores, and the tango halls that come to life nightly. Cobblestone streets teem with 19th-century buildings, once inhabited by affluent Spaniards. Thanks to preservation efforts, the area is now a cradle of history and culture, and all its landmarks have been declared national monuments.
