It does look like a water color set and yet there is no title on it... Hmmm.

This is the most original photo of La Boca that I have seen. Many others seem fairly pointless or that they could have been taken anywhere that there is some painted steel siding. We never made it over to La Boca unfortunately, in part because of all the negative things we heard about it including the idea of it being mostly a put on for the tourists.

I was once at a shopping mall that had a lot of corrugated steel painted up to look like La Boca, or at least I think that was the idea. It didn't quite work for me.

The tourist area of La Boca is quite small. It's interesting to see the brightly colored buildings, but you've got to deal with the touts, who are like mosquitoes. Beyond those few blocks, there's a whole 'nother world that's more interesting, though not as visually arresting.
