Caballito, Administrative division in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Caballito occupies 7.1 square kilometers in the geographical center of Buenos Aires, bordered by Rio de Janeiro Avenue and Rivadavia Avenue.

The name originated from a weather vane shaped like a horse that marked a traditional gathering spot at a local store in the 19th century.

The Ferro Carril Oeste football club and Historical Tramway Museum represent central aspects of local identity within this Buenos Aires neighborhood.

The neighborhood connects to greater Buenos Aires through Underground Line A stations and the Sarmiento commuter rail line at multiple access points.

The Polvorín Workshop maintains the rolling stock of Line A, the first underground transportation system built in the Southern Hemisphere in 1913.
