Caminito, La Boca
This is the main attraction in La Boca, Buenos Aires's original Little Italy. A pedestrianized street a few blocks long with a colorful, kitschy collection of painted houses known as conventillos (flimsily built houses that immigrants lived in), it's lined with art displays explaining the history of the area.
Cafe Tortoni
Café Tortoni was founded in 1858 and is the oldest coffee shop in Argentina. It is unquestionably the most famous. With a rich history, it has been visited by anybody who was anybody in Argentinean literature, politics or art. Hilary Clinton has also visited Café Tortoni and is quoted as saying, "What a treat to visit a piece of history and enjoy both the ambience and the delicious meal."
