Exploring the Buenos Aires Province - Azcuenaga - abandoned town reinvented

 

Many of the railroad towns like Azcuenaga have reinvented themselves since they were disconnected from the rail lines, many have annual festivals that attract crowds or have adapted old buildings and made them trendy coffee shops or restaurants.

One of the restos in Azcuenaga is "La Porteña" which runs in the towns former Tailor shop and keeps the ambiance of old in its rooms decorated with Taylors utensils.

Still in the "Partido de San Andres we can find the town of Azcuenaga, created in 1880 with the expansion of the Railroad.

A bit bigger tha Solis. It features the train station and some ruins of what seemed to be warehouses.

Also there is a nice church that can be visited.

So this one is a real blink and miss town. Solis is really small and out of the way, located at the edge of the ruta 193 and ruta 8 in the "Partido de San Andres de Giles".

Don´t expect a welcome party since it can only offer an abandoned train station and some vintage houses.

Never the less, when you do see people they will be open and welcoming subjects for some in passing photos.
