San Telmo One of the oldest neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, to the south of Plaza de Mayo. It still preserves streets with cobbles stones and many colonial houses, some of which were declared historical patrimony of the city.

You might say that the neuralgic center of San Telmo is Plaza Dorrego. This square is about ten blocks away from Plaza de Mayo, at the corner of Humberto Primo and Defensa. It is bordered by coffe shops and several antiquarians. There is an open market of antiques that takes place every Sunday named "Feria de San Telmo" that is worth seeing.

Many artists and craftsmen, as well as young couples, have chosen to live in San Telmo since they enjoy the atmosphere and caracther of the place.
