The markets in La Boca, Buenos Aires: Need some souvenirs of Argentina? Try La Boca.

by Flem2002

There are indoor markets within old warehouses, as well as stalls lining the pavements of the colourful streets of La Boca. The cafes and bars are full of character and music (usually tango) and you'll sometimes find people dancing a bit of tango in the bars in the middle of the day to pass the time. Leather is everywhere in Argentina (they eat so many cows, they have plenty of surplus skin to deal with), but you'll also find plenty of handicrafts, mate gourds, postcards and nick nacks at reasonable prices. There are plenty of artists in the streets offering watercolours and portraits if you wish.

A great souvenir you can bring from Argentina are siphones. These are old devices to load up water with gas to get sparkling soda.There is no specific shop as a recommendation, you can get these during sunday flea market in San Telmo.

A (Soon to Be) Comprehensive List: Hip Designers in Buenos Aires

by dibenjamin

This, girls and boyz, is not just a list of malls. No. It is the result of intense and sometimes harrowing hours of study and research, conducted over a period of weeks. I am attempting to answer the Question: Who are the best designers in Buenos Aires? It is a work in progress, but for now, I am pleased to present a partial list of what I have discovered to be the most worthwhile designers in this glamorous city.First, and to me, foremost (see picture) is MARIANO TOLEDOArmenia 1564www.mtoledo.com.arMariano Toledo's clothes are bold, structured, conceptual, unconventional and sexy. He has stores in London and Barcelona, plus the Buenos Aires store in Palermo Viejo. I got a pair of the lace up boots in leopard; I only hope I can walk in them.MARIA VAZQUEZLibertad 1632Alto Palermo Shoppingwww.mvzmariavazquez.com.arInnovative shapes, nice materials.

Antiques in San Telmo

by sophisticate

The antique shops in the San Telmo district of Buenos Aires are incredible. Bring an extra suitcase or plan on shipping things home. Forget bringing your friends back maté gourds for souvenirs - instead check out the antique chandeliers, silver candlesticks, framed art, jewelry...etc. You can't believe how affordable it all is. Antique jewelry, chandeliers, seltzer bottles, silverware, framed art, furniture... A lot less than in the US.

BUENOS AIRES : PHOTO DEVELOPMENT AT REIFSCHNEIDER

by swesn

Watch out for promotions.There was a ‘DEVELOP 5 ROLLS AND THE LAST ROLL IS FREE’ promotion when I was there. So, it averaged out to 18 Arg Pesos per roll. They use FUJI paper and the quality is really quite good. There are 2 branches along Calle Florida, Florida 250 and Florida 439.

Abasto: Shopping Mall at Carlos Gardel

by reon80

Abasto is a HUGE shopping mall located right next to Estacion Angel Gallardo in Buenos Aires and it is incredibly fun because its got great shops, a movie theater (cinema), AND a huge amusement park type area, with rides for the kids and all kinds of arcade games. Its a nice place to spend a day with friends, shopping, eating, playing, and talking! Be aware that things run VERY SMALL here...the women here are impossibly thin, so the clothes are geared toward them. My favorite store is Zara, a Spanish store which goes up to size 12 American. Plus, they have some GREAT styles. Everything seems expensive, but since the devaluation, it is incredibly cheap to shop here in Argentina (for foreigners), so take full advantage!
