Galerías Pacífico

Fun mall to walk around during the holidays -the Chanel Christmas tree is spectacular. The cafe downstairs makes a lovely cappuccino and has a nice sparkling wine by the glass. The shopping is very average here however, I suggest the stand aline shops in Palermo Soho and Recoleta to find your treasures.

This place is a beautiful vintage building extremely well kept. Is the equivalent to South Coast plaza in Costa Mesa. Full of designer brands, there is a cultural center with new expositions constantly. To have a coffee in the cafe by the fountain is very chic. There are stores for everyone's taste. This place is one of my favorites in the area. Must see!!!

Right in the heart of the Calle Florida shopping pedestrian street. This place was my go to secure environment when I needed to use my Samsung Galaxy. Excellent food court where I could initiate my Buenos Aires food journey. Of course better places in San Telmo or Bocca Barrios.

This was a nice walk over from my hotel and safe. The mall has very exquisite art work and decor inside. It was very enjoyable walking around looking in shops and looking at the artistry. It gives an old world filling. There is a food court in level 1 that had some American restaurants like KFC and Sbarro. Besides that there were Argentinian options for empanadas, pastry's and helado. Police presence was evidence around the mall. Also it is very easy to catch a taxi as they were lined up on one side of mall. Neat fact, you can use Uber for taxi or Uber driver and you can also select cash as payment for either if you'd like to pay for your fare in pesos or USD.

This is possibly the fanciest shopping mall I've ever been to! This place is pretty amazing. It's like someone took an old art museum, and turned it into a shopping mall. The ceilings are fantastic- covered in frescoes of classical art, the walls have giant paintings of them of abstract and modern art.
As you wander through the corridors by the escalators, there's art fashion displays of recycled materials made into nouveau couter clothing. Things like skirts made from old bleach bottles and suits made from road cones. It's called fashion, Brenda!
The escalators were nice and wide and slow, and a few didn't work when I went. There's small elevators, and good signage to let you know where everything is. There's a nice variety of stores, focusing on the higher end of things. There's plenty of kiosks, and it felt safe to shop here.
Just coming through here to take a look at the scenery in here is worth a visit!
The restrooms are clean and well-stocked. Parking looks challenging here.

The interior of this gallery of stores in itself is impressive, even more than the stores inside.

The outside doesn't look like much but the interior with the fresco inspired ceilings are beautiful.

The stores inside are a mix of mid range to high range stores.

I didn't actually spend any time in any is the stores as I was more enamored with the interior of this mall. I spent quite a bit of time walking around to see all of the beautiful ceiling paintings.

Based on two things:
One:
Food court steak parrilla place called Postavecchia, sat at the "restaurant" eating area and ORDER the Entraña. Bestskirt steak I have EVER had. Order it jugoso. Easy knife cut, no struggles sawing the thing. It's perfection.
Two:
Luciano's ice cream bars.

Worth a Quick View of the Cupola and Frescoes or Longer to Shop

Built to mimic the Parisian emporium, Le Bon Marché, it went through several subsequent transformations, including housing an art museum and a railway station. Visit to view the beautiful Beaux-Arts architecture, shop, or have a sweet treat.

A very upscale shopping mall in a magnificent building built in 1889. A multi floor mall with great stores and restaurants.

Right in the heart of Calle Florida.

This is a very pretty mall, you cant miss it white walking on Calle Florida! The building from outside is impressive and huge! It spans an entire block. Once you enter, there is a whole lot of shops you can shop from, mostly all brands. Coming from US, I preferred not to shop from the normal brands, but I enjoyed ice cream at Lucciano's and various options in their food court. There are ample restrooms and small shops on the alleys to keep you interested. The ceiling of the mall is very pretty too, very Roman! Make sure you stroll through this mall for a different experience while in Buenos Aires.
