Greetings to all Hive friends! This post is dedicated to a mini tour I did yesterday through the famous and colorful neighborhood of La Boca, it's been several years since I visited this place and I didn't remember how lively it is.
It is a neighborhood that has many characteristics and is visited by numerous tourists throughout the year, photographers and artists are attracted by the colorful place, by the activities that take place there and by the gastronomy it offers.
Saludos a todos amigos de Hive! Este post va dedicado a un mini recorrido que realicé el día de ayer por el famoso y colorido barrio de La Boca, ya desde hace varios años que no visitaba este lugar y no recordaba lo alegre que es.
Es un barrio que tienes muchísimas características y es visitado por numeros turistas durante todo el año, fotografos y artistas son atraidos por lo colorido del lugar, por las actividades que allí se realizan y por la gastronomía que ofrece.
The name is due to the fact that this is the place where the mouths of the creek where they flow into the Río de la Plata are located. Nearby is the Almirante Brown Bridge and the Rock Sud neighborhood on the other side.
It also limits with the localities of San Telmo, Barracas, Puerto Madero and Avellaneda, being this last one already belonging to the province of Buenos Aires south.
El nombre se debe a que en este lugar en donde se encuentran las bocas del riachuelo dónde desembocan al Río de la Plata. En sus adyacencias se encuentra en puente Almirante Brown y el barrio de Rock Sud hacia el otro lado.
También limita con las localidades de San Telmo, Barracas, Puerto Madero y Avellaneda, siendo ésta última ya perteneciente a la provincia de Buenos Aires sur.
One of the best known features is a place called Caminito, it is an alley where there are usually numerous artists and artisans selling and exhibiting works, paintings and souvenirs, plus on Sundays there are couples dancing tango.
Unfortunately the day of my visit was not very crowded and these activities were not present, it was a very cold cloudy day and the truth is that the place was a little empty of both visitors and local activities.
Una de las características más conocidas es un lugar llamado Caminito, es un callejón en dónde suele haber numerosos artistas y artesanos vendiendo y exponiendo obras, pinturas y souvenirs, además de que los domingos hay parejas bailando tango.
Lamentablemente el día de mi visita no fue muy concurrido y éstas actividades no estuvieron presentes, fue un día nublado de mucho frío y la verdad estuvo un poco vacío el lugar tanto de visitastes como de actividades locales.
Among its streets there are many historic conventillos that are very attractive to tourists and have unique features in terms of their colorful appearance, balconies with dolls of historical characters, selling handicrafts, statuettes, souvenirs, clothing, among other things related to the typical dance, soccer and much more.
Entre sus calles existen muchísimos conventillos históricos que son muy atractivos para los turistas y poseen características únicas en cuanto a su apariencia colorida, balcones con muñecos de personajes históricos, venta de artesanías, estatuillas, souvenirs, indumentaria, entre otras cosas relacionadas con el baile típico, fútbol y mucho más.
Here you can see characters made for the physical representation of the famous soccer player Armando Maradona, the former first lady of Argentina Eva Perón and the famous singer Carlos Gardel.
Acá se pueden observar personajes hechos para la representación física del famoso futbolista Armando Maradona, la ex primera dama de la Nación Argentina Eva Perón y el famoso cantante Carlos Gardel.
It is also a very well known neighborhood due to the existence of the Boca Juniors Club stadium, "La Bombonera". Place of many historic sporting events in the field of soccer and is also very visited by tourists and fans of this sport.
Tambien es un barrio muy conocido por el hecho de la existencia del estadio del Club Boca Juniors, "La Bombonera". Lugar de muchísimos eventos deportivos históricos dentro del ámbito del fútbol y que también es muy visitado por los turistas y aficionados de este deporte.
Despite all the picturesque of the place it is advisable to visit during the day because at nightfall this neighborhood is usually quite dangerous, so it is also recommended not to go away from the streets and areas that are touristy.
I hope you have enjoyed this brief historical summary of this picturesque and emblematic neighborhood of the city of Buenos Aires. If you liked the post leave me a comment 😊
A pesar de todo lo pintoresco del lugar es recomendable hacer visitas durante el día ya que al caer la noche éste barrio suele ser bastante peligroso, por ello se recomienda también no alejarse de las calles y zonas que son turísticas.
