하이라이트

San Telmo is the oldest neighbourhood in Buenos Aires, and its cobblestone streets hold enough history to fill several lifetimes. On this self-guided walking tour, you'll trace how sailors, slaves, immigrants, and tango singers turned a muddy colonial outpost into the soul of the city. You'll also discover how a yellow fever epidemic, two British invasions, and millions of Italian immigrants each left their mark on this single neighbourhood. The tour starts at Basílica de San Francisco, where a time capsule is hidden inside a stone statue on the facade. From there, you'll walk south along Defensa Street, passing the oldest pharmacy in Buenos Aires and the spot where residents repelled two British invasions from rooftops using stones and boiling water. You'll also hear how that resistance helped spark Argentina's independence movement, and why the street you're walking is named after those events.

    경유

  2. You'll pass the ornate doorway of Farmacia La Estrella Homeopatía, the oldest pharmacy in Buenos Aires, dating back to 1834. If it's open, you're welcome to step inside and admire its original walnut shelving and painted ceilings at no charge.

    경유

  4. You'll pass by the beloved Mafalda statue, a bronze of Argentina's most famous cartoon character seated on a bench on the corner where she "lived" in Quino's comics. It's a free photo spot, though you may need to wait your turn.

    경유

  5. Passing by Museo Zanjón de Granados, you'll hear how this restored former conventillo sits atop a buried river that once marked the edge of the city. A separate ticket is required to explore the underground passages inside.

  6. You'll pass Casa Mínima, the narrowest house in Buenos Aires at just 2.5 metres wide, linked to the story of the city's freed Afro-Argentine population. It's part of the El Zanjón complex, so a separate ticket is needed to go inside.

    경유

    경유

  12. Your tour concludes at Museo Histórico Nacional, home to the sword of independence hero José de San Martín. Admission requirements should be checked in advance, as this tour does not include a ticket.

About Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is Argentina's elegant, passionate capital, a city of grand boulevards, tango halls, leafy barrios and late-night steak dinners.

The Plaza de Mayo, framed by the pink Casa Rosada and the Metropolitan Cathedral, is the historic heart of the city, and the vast Avenida 9 de Julio leads to the Obelisk. The Teatro Colón, one of the great opera houses, and the grand cafés of Avenida de Mayo recall the city's golden age.
