Overview
We will leave from Plaza de Mayo, the foundational and political nucleus, to visit:
Librería del Ávila (del Colegio): the oldest bookstore in Buenos Aires, linked to the May Revolution and personalities such as Manuel Belgrano.
Café London and Palacio Vera with El Túnel Bookstore: referents of bohemia, art, and Art Nouveau architecture.
Corrientes Avenue and Diagonal Norte: cultural axis with thematic bookstores such as Film (cinema), Astrea (law), Praxis Jurídica, and El Jurista (courts).
La Revistería: specialized in comics and manga, next to the San Martín Theater.
Edipo: bookstore symbol of cultural resistance during the dictatorship.
Editorial Claretiana and Parroquia Ntra. Sra. del Carmen: religious and architectural tradition.
Clásica y Moderna: cultural café and space for literary gatherings.
Ateneo Grand Splendid: considered one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world, located in an old theater from 1919.
A unique journey that combines literature, architecture, history and remarkable cafes to understand why Buenos Aires is the city with the most bookstores per capita in the world.
