Street Museum Caminito

Calle Museo Caminito

An outdoor exhibition of artists, everyday from 10 am to 6 pm.
The famous tango goes "Caminito que el tiempo ha borrado, que juntos un dia nos viste pasar, he venido por ultima vez, he venido a contarte mi mal." Ahh, this is a magical street: among colorful-tin houses we see couples tangoing, artists portraying the passer-byes, and some melancholic people playing the bandoneon. This is a good place to buy souvenirs.
