PEñAS |
The folklore has a strong presence in the cultural activity of the city through the peñas criollas. All peñas offer musical shows, dance floor, typical food and drinks, and dance classes. In addition, also truco (a card game) competitions are organized. Many peñas have a definite musical identity – they specialize in melodies typical of different Argentine regions. Abasto, San Telmo and Palermo are neighborhoods where you will find most of them.
