PLAZA DE MAYO SQUARE: THE VENDORS
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: PLAZA DE MAYO SQUARE

    Not only protests you can find in this square, not only mothers protesting for their missed sons, you can find lots of pigeons and vendors selling cool souvenirs of Argentina, lots of flags and pins, I love all those stuffs, so Steve and I made a real party. This is Steve just watching....I bought some flags! :)

    You can notice the Cathedral just in the background of the photo!

  • Name of Shop: IT IS THE FIRST GALERIA NEXT TO MACDONALDS

    A Galeria is a little shop center, i really do not know the name of the store, but if you see the first MacDonalds of Florida Street, next to San martin Square and look for my friends Paulo and Elizabeth, you will see nice Cashmere pullovers and many incredible coats with patagonian wool. Great quality and spectacular prices, you can get a nice and genuine patagonian coat for less than 50 dollars. I made a real party there.

    Paulo is brazilian and Elizabeth is argentinean, they are very nice people and for sure they will give you a warm welcome!

    The prices in Buenos Aires now are really unbelieveble, very cheap for americans, canadians, europeans and believe it or not, for us brazilians!

    What To Buy: All kind of coats!

    What To Pay: Prices varies alot, and for sure you will find excellent bargains!
