Sightseeing

This was the first pedestrian street in downtown. Now there are many others. It's fun to walk along it between the crowds, checking out the street vendors and amazing architecture. Watch for pickpockets though.

San Telmo is the artsy, bohemian area of the city. It's gritty and old and totally beautiful. A few years back, it was sort of forgotten, but now it's packed with great bars, shops, cafes, and restaurants. There aren't as many antique shops as there used to be, but there are still a bunch.

Shopping

The best place in the city to shop for leather. There are tons of stores. Prices are similar in each, but they'll have different styles or colors. They can make an item for you if they don't have exactly what you want.
