Hi Andi,
Yes, I love the San Telmo market. Got to experience it twice, along with the samba band/dancers in the afternoon and the tango in the evening. Simply captivating.
Cheers,

A picture from my favorite city in the world! I love the San Telmo market. I have been there countless times. Did you buy anything?
Hahaha, buying one would’ve meant lugging it around Argentina/Brazil for a month. Uh, no.
Cheers,
Keith
You were able to sit there and not buy one?? Oh, how could that be possible!

The coolest thing about the San Telmo market is looking at 100-year-old photographs and old maps of an incomplete world. Plus, you can’t go wrong with the live tango shows!
Thank you Jen and Nancie for your lovely comments. This is one of my favourite shots of the Sunday market in San Telmo. I sat at a café opposite this stand for several hors just watching people pass by. A wonderful experience!
Cheers,
Keith
