Walk with me. Video tour - Peru street in Buenos Aires

Here is some video from the prime tourist attraction.

You will find almost anything in San Telmo - Defensa street

I started filming as we came up on the plaza on Defensa street. Street performers sometimes get more attention if they don't move! I have seen this guy out there every day. Weekdays he frequents fake wind on Florida street. This weekend he was on the cobblestone fair that runs the length of Peru street.

Many people here are so desperate to make a living and not pay taxes, they will do just about anything to attain a handout from the passing tourists. Puppet shows, music, or imaginary wind - you name it.

Some of the stores sell statues that weigh nine hundred pounds. The perfect purchase for someone who just flew to the southern most country of the world. Can you say over-weight baggage charge?

We were on our way to get something to eat so I could not really do any shopping. I only had about $1500 on me which is enough for the three of us to get whatever we want plus tip. Last time we ate at Che Taco it was about $1000 but you never know as things double quickly here.

I have been looking for real silverware forever - today I found some that was in excellent shape. I didn't enough for silver with me, but I asked the owner of the stand to drop it by my house on his way home. He was glad to! He arrived at my door about 8:30 p.m. as promised. Finally, I have my non-stainless utensils, twelve spoons, six forks and 6 butter knives for $4200 or about 240 U.S. doll-hairs. I am glad to have some investment silver(ware), an integral part of healthy living.

Hello my friend @sponge-bob... you take a great time to shop with your children's, enjoy your day...

Nice post... I'm glad to know that you got your utensils

An absolutely lovely place. I hope to visit one day!

when judging by the images it was a beautiful walk, I loved the video, incredible the man who is all good. great.
if you want to invest in silver utensils because you do not buy on ebay. com are more economical.
I wish you a beautiful night

It would cost double by the time it got through customs. They all but outright ask for bribes at the counter.

Very nice place, really nice market
I wish you the best times, my friend
