An unsettling quiet has fallen over a stretch of the usually noisy Feria de San Telmo Sunday market. Artisans should be lining these cobbled streets selling intricate macrame jewellery and Argentinian leather purses to crowds of tourists from all over the world. Deafening percussion bands, accompanied by dancers, and street vendors selling empanadas and arepas should be making their way up the road.
some of them sell foods in not safe conditions. And some others are selling stuff which didn´t go through customs, so no artisans at all. Quite biased your article...
yes. It was. They populate San Telmo streets out of order. Many times have been prohibited their presence since others have got official permision to stay selling man made products. They get very violent to the point of needing police action.
