Shopping in Buenos Aires

When shopping make sure to carry pesos, Argentina’s unit of money. Carry small bills that are easy to break, and coins for buses. Since the exchange rate is pretty good shopping is a great idea. Traditional souvenirs include cups made from different materials; gaucho items, such as traditional clothes and knives; leather items; traditional cookies; and tango shoes. For great shopping head over to Florida and Lavalle streets in MicroCentro. For young and trendy shops hit up the Palermo Viejo in Palermo. Shops here carry many items that appeal to young or artsy people.
