About The Calle Florida
The Calle Florida already appears on a city plan of 1582, and it has been fully pedestrian since 1971. Its ten blocks join the historic centre to Retiro and the Plaza San Martín, past boutiques, bookshops, period façades and bares notables, with the Galería Güemes on the way and the Galerías Pacífico, crowned by murals of Argentine masters, near Avenida Córdoba.
