Truly a city of dreams and contradictions, it's a place to see more with the heart. The traditional and colourful alleys of Caminito glittered with everything vibrant and the La Bombonera stadium(Boca Juniors) at the corner was a homage..⚽

An evening stroll visiting the lazy city square of Plaza de Mayo and the commercial street of Florida y Lavalle was well worth it...
