Boca:
La Boca is a neighborhood, or
barrio of the Argentine capital, Buenos Aires. It retains a strong European flavour, with many of its early settlers being from the Italian city of Genoa. In fact the name has a strong assonance with the Genoese neighborhood of Boccadasse, and some people believe
that the Buenos Aires barrio was indeed named after it. The
conventional explanation is that the neighborhood sits at the mouth of the Riachuelo.
In 1882, after a lengthy general strike, La Boca seceded from Argentina, and the rebels raised the Genoese flag, which was immediately torn down personally by then President Julio Argentino Roca.
It is known among sports fans for La Bombonera the home of Boca Juniors, one of the world's best known football clubs. La Boca is a popular destination for tourists visiting Argentina, with its colourful houses and pedestrian street, the
Caminito, where tango artists perform and tango-related memorabilia is sold. Other attractions include the La Ribera theatre, many tango clubs and Italian taverns.
The Riachuelo:

The
Matanza River is known by several names, including, in Spanish,
Río de la Matanza ("the slaughter river" in English)
Río Matanza ("slaughter river")
Río Mataderos ("slaughterhouses river")
Río de la Manzana ("the apple river")
or simply
Riachuelo ("little river" or "brook")
It is a 64-kilometre (40 mi) stream in Argentina that originates in the Buenos Aires Province and defines the southern boundary of the Buenos Aires federal district. It empties into the Río de la Plata between Tandanor and Dock Sud. The La Boca neighbourhood and the Boca Juniors football club are located near the Riachuelo's mouth. The Spanish word
boca means "mouth".
The river's course has been canalized and channelized in places, especially along its lower course.
Bridge on Riachuelo-Matanza river

Río La Matanza, and from that point onwards as
Riachuelo. Approximately 3.5 million people live in its drainage basin of 2,240 km
