San Telmo
Best time to visit
Weekday mornings are best for quieter streets and open galleries; Sundays from mid-morning are lively for the Feria de San Telmo and street tango if you want the market buzz.
Budget tips
Walking the neighborhood and the Sunday market is free; small museums charge modest fees, and some offer discounted or free days so check museum websites in advance. Use cash for market purchases and a SUBE card for public transit to avoid taxi costs.

About
Бързи факти: Cobblestone streets play a symphony underfoot as artisans display their crafts and tango music spills from open-door cafes, wrapping visitors in a timeless embrace. The neighborhood pulses with eclectic energy during its famous Sunday market, where antiques and street performers create an atmosphere that's both vibrant and nostalgic.
Акценти: Imagine walking on cobblestone streets where every Sunday over 300 antique stalls pop up selling everything from vintage leather goods to rare vinyl records. In a tiny plaza called Plaza Dorrego, locals dance tango spontaneously as the scent of freshly brewed mate tea mingles with the sound of old jazz records playing in cozy cafés.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes, cobblestones are uneven and can be slippery after rain.
- Head to Plaza Dorrego and the side streets like Defensa for the best photo opportunities and murals.
- Avoid the busiest market hours around noon on Sundays by arriving early, or visit weekday mornings for a calmer experience.
- Keep small bills and a secure crossbody bag handy, petty theft can occur in crowded areas.
