LA BOCA
This neighborhood is one of the most touristic areas of Buenos Aires. Its name is due to its location: it is the entrance (commonly known as ”the mouth” in Spanish) of the Riachuelo, used by Pedro de Mendoza in his first foundation. Its activity was always linked to the port doings and production, becoming a settled-down place for an important labor population of immigrants especially from Geneva. These workers brought with them the new socialists and anarchists ideas and therefore this neighborhood became one of the first centers for social claims. Its constructions are those of the typical houses with walls of foils also present in other port areas that give a unique physiognomy to the neighborhood in the city.

ATTRACTIONS
The famous street in this neighborhood is the picturesque Caminito, of hardly 100 meters, next to the coastal road in which the countless colors of its constructions with murals and reliefs stand out. On this street there are a variety of artists that offer their productions and shows. Other outstanding points of this area are the Foundación Proa, a modern exhibitions center, La Boca Fine Arts Museum, whose main artist is Benito Quinquela Martín, who carried out an enormous work on the neighborhood, La Ribera Theater, the antique market with more than 100 years, and the Bridge Nicolás Avellaneda. The churches of the neighborhood are "San Juan El Evangelista" and the Sanctuary "Nuestra Señora Madre de los Emigrantes". There are some very exclusive tango places and several Italian taverns, especially on the street Necochea. A characteristic element of this neighborhood is the Club Boca Junior, one of the most important of the country that possesses its stadium, “La Bombonera”, with capacity for more than 50.000 spectators.
