La Boca


My favorite neighborhood of Argentina was La Boca. While incredibly touristy, you cannot help but fall in love with this unique place. The colorful walls are the main attraction here, but at a closer glance, there is so much more to experience and enjoy in La Boca. The main strip has tons of souvenir shops, along with all of the signature colorful walls that work perfectly for Instagram selfie backdrops. Throughout the neighborhood, live music could be heard from the band at the corner, playing Argentine tunes. A walk through these streets will surely lighten your mood! 

The streets are authentic cobblestone, which adds even more character to La Boca. Vendors line every road, selling their own hand made products, including jewelry, scarves and blankets, artwork, and more. I discovered that La Boca was one of the best places to buy souvenirs in all of Buenos Aires: everything was authentic and handmade while also being fairly cheap. La Boca also had a multitude of restaurants, all of which had the Argentina World Cup games playing on the televisions. The entire environment of this neighborhood was upbeat and excited; everyone's attitudes seemed to match the brightness and quirkiness of the colorful walls that surrounded them. This bustling tourist neighborhood is definitely one of the gems of Buenos Aires.
