Caminito
Caminito is Buenos Aires' most well-known pedestrian street. Because of its colorful residences and rich historical and cultural value, it is one of the city's most popular tourist attractions. It is located in the famous area of La Boca, on the Riachuelo River shore, and is only 400 meters from La Bombonera, the Boca Juniors stadium. It is a pedestrian promenade in the shape of a 150-meter curve where notable artistic pieces may be seen.
Benito Quinquela Martn, a well-known painter and benefactor of the area, painted the wooden and zinc dwellings in a variety of hues. Important artistic masterpieces, such as "Herrero Boquense," "Esperando la barca," and "La Familia," are also on display. All pieces were contributed by prominent artists in order to beautify and liven up this route. In addition, there are hundreds of murals with strong societal significance that stand out in the neighborhood's walls. Several restaurants have tango and folk dance performances, and the streets are filled with artists selling original crafts and paintings.
