Shopping
It's no joke: Buenos Aires is a shopper's paradise. The city is laced with shopping streets
lined with heaps of clothing and shoe stores, leather shops and nearly everything else you
can think of. Large shopping malls are modern and family-friendly, offering designer
goods, food courts and even children's play areas. But perhaps the city's best shopping is
in Palermo Viejo, home to countless upscale boutiques; these offer avant-garde clothing,
unique housewares and fun souvenirs. And let's not forget San Telmo, where antiques afi-
cionados flock; the Sunday fair here is famous and entertaining, and will easily fill up a
long afternoon.
