Feria de San Pedro Telmo (Sunday Market)

If you have the good fortune of being in Buenos Aires on a Sunday afternoon, head to the San Telmo neighborhood. One of the oldest areas in Buenos Aires, it comes alive with antique and artisanal vendors, street performers, hawkers, tango performances in the park and stalls selling vintage memorabilia. Walk down Calle Defensa, which becomes a pedestrian street for this weekly fair, but make sure to explore the side streets. It's here where you may discover stores selling only vintage road signs or a shoe store carrying hand-made leather tango shoes.
