Then, visit the National Historical Museum in the park, with key artifacts from Argentina's history, such as Belgrano's flag from the War of Independence. Continue on Defensa Street, famous for its antique stores and the San Telmo Fair on Sundays, with handicrafts and live music.

Discover the Casa Mínima on Pasaje San Lorenzo, the narrowest house in Buenos Aires, and move on to Plaza Dorrego, the center of life in San Telmo, surrounded by bars and stores. Steps away, the San Telmo Market combines fresh food and modern locals, ideal for sampling crazy gastronomy.
