San Telmo Market, Buenos Aires, Argentina

San Telmo is the oldest barrio (neighbourhood) in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Cafes, tango parlors and antique shops line up the cobblestone streets, which are filled with artists and dancers. Sundays is the day of the main San Telmo market, and this video is a collection of four short clips filmed during the Sunday market.

@gerajmar I don´t agree, I live in San Telmo and this is just as much San telmo as anything else, they are super great and can really make your day. They can alone be a reson to come here! And BTW, most people in Argentina are imigrants.

Those people are from Jamaica, this is what you can read in their shirts and we don´t look like them, there are not many blacks here, and San Telmo is a place for TANGO dancers but not this that you are showing in the beginning of this video, they don´t belong here and that is not a tipical dance from here, they are immigrants.

Bolivianos, paraguayos vendiendo chucherías y ropa sobre la Peatonal Florida o armando ferias enormes informales como La Salada, negros en todas las esquinas vendiendo cosas de oro enchapada y ahora hasta tenemos jamaiquinos haciendo batucada en San Telmo?!, en qué nos estamos convirtiendo?
