La Boca - caminito

La Boca is an area of Buenos Aires that is a real mixture of rundown old houses - and this insane set of streets around Caminito (meaning small walkway I believe) that are really bright and eccentric and happy. The have loads of restaurants on them and shops and tango displays - and are apparently painted in such bright colours as a passed-down tradition from Italian immigrants. As an addict of all things colourful, I was gobsmacked at the streets - and took LOADS of snaps. Check them out:
