Introduction: Buenos Aires San Telmo & Downtown
Today, we will go south of Buenos Aires and start our day in San Telmo district. From there we will follow the flea market all the way to downtown Buenos Aires.
This will be the perfect day to buy some great souvenir, visit monuments and discover more of this incredible city.

San Telmo
Mercado San Telmo
The main attraction of San Telmo will be the Feria (flea market) but to start the day, we opted to begin our day in the Mercado as it is the southernmost point of the feria and walk back up.
Unfortunately, most of places were closed but still it was a cool building to visit.
Pricing and booking
Mirador Guemes Gallery
This place was closed when we were there, but we believe it worth to be on your itinerary. Located in a shopping mall/gallery, this viewpoint is supposed to offer you view over the whole city.
Teatro Colón
One of the 10 best opera in the world with acoustically considered to be amongst the five best concert venues in the world.
You can either visit the theatre via a guided tour, you will need to check out the opening hours and prices or only admire its architecture.
It offers both English and Spanish tour, but we believe the best would be to get to see a real piece in it.
“Some beautiful paths can’t be discovered without getting lost.”
