Nacido a finales del siglo XIX alrededor del pujante [poi=155671]Mercado de Abasto[/poi], el barrio de Abasto se caracterizó por ser una gran fuente de trabajo para inmigrantes. Salpicado de bares y ‘boliches’, Abasto siempre fue tierra tanguera. Emblema del barrio es Carlos Gardel, quien junto a otros célebres cantores y músicos hicieron de Abasto su refugio. Carlos Gardel vivió en Jean Jaurès 735 (casa hoy convertida en museo) durante seis años y otro famoso tanguero, Aníbal Troilo, nació en una casa ubicada en Cabrera entre Anchorena y Agüero. Debido a la espectacular renovación del Mercado de Abasto (hoy convertido en gigantesco shopping), el barrio ha sufrido grandes mejoras. El precioso [poi=158052]Pasaje Zelaya[/poi] ha sido remozado, se han abierto pequeños teatros independientes, y las tiendas, que antes vendían ropa y zapatos para bailar el tango sólo a amantes del 2x4, ahora han subido los precios para vendérselos a los turistas.
Born in the late nineteenth century booming around the Mercado de Abasto, the Abasto neighborhood is characterized as a large source of employment for immigrants. Dotted bars and 'bowling', Abasto was always land tango. Emblem of the neighborhood is Carlos Gardel, who along with other famous singers and musicians made their refuge Abasto. Carlos Gardel lived in Jean Jaurès 735 (house now a museum) for six years and another famous tango, Anibal Troilo, born in a house located in Cabrera between Anchorena and Aguero. Due to the spectacular renovation of Market Hall (now a gigantic shopping), the neighborhood has undergone major improvements. The beautiful Pasaje Zelaya has been revamped, have opened small independent theaters, and shops that once sold clothing and shoes for tango lovers only 2x4, now have raised prices to sell to tourists.

Bairro Abasto

Todo mundo sabe que Buenos Aires é super turística, e todo mundo vai a San Telmo e ao bairro La Boca sabendo que são bairros bem tangueiros. O que acontece é que todos deixam de lado um bairro importantíssimo, o Abasto. Ele é mais afastado do centro, mas ainda assim fica na Av. Corrientes. Você pode descer na Estação Carlos Gardel e passear por ali. Logo na saída do metrô tem um shopping enorme, com o mesmo nome do bairro. Caminhando pelas redondezas, irá encontrar a Esquina Carlos Gardel (casa de tango famosa), o Museu Carlos Gardel, algumas das melhores escolas de tango, lojas e mais lojas com artigos de dança, além de ruas coloridinhas com o fileteado porteño. A região transpira tango! Perca-se por ali e conheça um dos primeiros pontos tangueiros da cidade!
Everyone knows that Buenos Aires is super tourist, and everyone goes to San Telmo and La Boca neighborhoods are well aware that tango. What happens is that everyone leaves aside an important neighborhood, the Abasto. It is farthest from the center, but still is on Corrientes Avenue. You can get off at the station Carlos Gardel and stroll around. Just off the subway has a huge mall with the same name of the neighborhood. Walking the neighborhood, you will find the Esquina Carlos Gardel (famous home of tango), the Carlos Gardel Museum, some of the best tango schools, shops and more shops with dance articles, and streets with coloridinhas fileteado porteño. The region exudes tango! Lose yourself out there and meet one of the first points of the city tango!

TANGO: Esquina Carlos Gardel

TANGO: Esquina Carlos Gardel

Magnífico espectáculo de cena y tango! . Si estas de viaje por Argentina no puedes perdertelo. Es maravilloso ver a los artistas callejeros, pero aun así, no tiene nada que ver. Merece la pena pagar dicho espectáculo porque se te llevaras un gran recuerdo.
Superb dinner and tango show! . If you are traveling in Argentina you can not miss it. It is wonderful to see the street performers, but even so, it has nothing to do. It was well worth the show because you'll take away a great memory.
