                  <text>The Feria de Mataderos is an opportunity to bring some of the country lifestyle into the city.
Like many other fairs in Buenos Aires, it is an open market filled with exotic and artisanal
products, and occurs every Sunday. In some cases, the Feria de Mataderos has had over 700
stands selling these goods, with around 15,000 people (locals and tourists alike) experiencing
the fair.
At the fair you can expect to see mate, clothing, jewlrey, musical instruments, art, and
handmade goods. Along with the crafts, the Feria also has a good selection of food, with stands
offering empanadas, choripan, locro, and more. While you eat, you’ll likely be able to see a
cultural show, such as regional music and dance or displays of gaucho (or cowboy) related
abilities.
What separates the Feria de Mataderos from the other fairs you might come across is the
authenticity. Only a small percentage of tourists make their way to the fair, making it a mostly
unaltered experience of the culture. This also affects the entire atmosphere, as the locals are
frequently as excited to be there as the tourists. This energy and authenticity is what makes the
fair such a great destination.
Whether you’re interested in shopping, eating, or just absorbing the culture, the Feria de
Mataderos is a great event to attend.
