Belgrano is mostly residential with high rises and there are also unique houses like the one pictured below.

Barrio Belgrano has a lot of neighborhood cafes, flower shops, and local corner markets.

Plaza Barrancas del Belgrano is the main lush green park in Barrio Belgrano which features a monument and a fountain.

There is also a lot of street art in Belgrano which makes it kind of like a bohemian neighborhood.

Belgrano also has a movie theater called the Belgrano Multiplex.

Barrio Belgrano is home to the unofficial Chinatown of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It’s unofficial because there isn’t an overwhelming majority of Chinese that inhabits the neighborhood although they convinced China to give them a Chinatown arch.

Like most Chinatowns around the world, it’s filled with the typical Chinese souvenir shops.

There are also restaurants that serve Argentine and Asian food. It was hard to find a Chinese only restaurant in Chinatown although most are Asian fusion.
