Sightseeing

This was the first pedestrian street in downtown. Now there are many others. It's fun to walk along it between the crowds, checking out the street vendors and amazing architecture. Watch for pickpockets though.

Gorgeous little town in Uruguay that's perfect for a day trip. Bring your camera. It's very picturesque. Take the ferry over and back in the same day and cross the massive Rio de la Plata.

San Telmo is the artsy, bohemian area of the city. It's gritty and old and totally beautiful. A few years back, it was sort of forgotten, but now it's packed with great bars, shops, cafes, and restaurants. There aren't as many antique shops as there used to be, but there are still a bunch.

Shopping

The best place in the city to shop for leather. There are tons of stores. Prices are similar in each, but they'll have different styles or colors. They can make an item for you if they don't have exactly what you want.

Beautiful leather. Go on one of your first days and have them take your measurements. You can get the leather you like, the lining you like, the cut you like. It's amazing.

Stunning park along the river with a great trail for running or walking. You don't often get to see the river while in BA. From here, you can see how immense it is. Uruguay is on the other side.
