San Telmo, Administrative district in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

San Telmo features narrow cobblestone streets lined with colonial buildings, antique shops, cafes, and numerous tango establishments.

The district transformed after the 1871 yellow fever epidemic when wealthy residents moved north, leaving their mansions to become shared housing for immigrants.

The San Telmo Market, established in 1897, houses food stalls, antique dealers, and craft vendors in a classical iron structure.

The neighborhood connects to the rest of Buenos Aires through multiple bus lines and the Plaza de Mayo subway station on Line A.

Casa Minima on San Lorenzo Street measures only 2.2 meters wide, making it the narrowest house in Buenos Aires.
