Basílica del Santísimo Sacramento, seen from Pasaje Corina Kavanagh.

Caminito
July 24, 2009

 

Song ”Caminito”, by Carlos Gardel.

One thing I admire in Buenos Aires is its ability to renew areas that were destroyed, abandoned, dirty or ugly transforming them into places of high tourist appeal. This happened with Puerto Madero and with a small street in the neighborhood of La Boca called Caminito. Click here to continue reading…
