Finally we visited to "La Boca Neighborhood". It's located in southeast limit of the city. His name is known because the neighbothood is ubicated in the end of the riachuelo. Other reason of his name is for the Soccer Club called "Boca Juniors".

"La Boca" was found in 1536. In this neighborhood was located the principal port of Buenos Aires . Nowadays "La Boca" is known like a neighborhood where have houses and "conventillos" of a lot of colours, principaly green, yellow, red, blue. This is because the foreigners, when they came to our country, was very poor, and they used all the paint that they found. This is the reason of the lots of colours which each house have.

The most important entry of this neighborhood is called "Caminito", and we walked for this entry. In this pictures we can see the houses and the diferent kinds of colour.
