Some of the highlights are La Boca, a colorful, creative mecca with a must-do art walk, and San Telmo, a former aristocratic neighborhood that was abandoned during a 19th-century epidemic. Mansions were turned into conventillos (shared housing), boutique hotels, antique shops, and tango clubs, exuding a captivating bohemian vibe. ...
