1. Second day in Buenos Aires
THE FIRST PLACE WHERE WE WERE WAS THE
CONGRESS
Is the administrative
palace of the country
Location immediately
surrounding the
palace contains many
of the city's most
significant works of
art and monuments.
National congress building is located at the
western end of the Avenida de Mayo. On the
opposing end of the street, you can find the
country's other administrative palace, the
presidential palace Casa Rosada.

2. Second place: Plaza De Mayo
It’s the main square in Buenos Aires. Since being the scene of the 25 May 1810
revolution, it has been a hub of political life in Argentina.
Following over a century
of overuse and neglect,
the local colonial
government attempted
to give a semblance of
order to the plaza by
having a colonnade built
across it from north to
south.
A long time ago
Mayor Torcuato de
Alvear ordered the space
modernized, resulting in
the demolition of the
colonnade and the
creation of the
modern Plaza de Mayo.

3. Our next visit was to La Casa Rosada
We toured around the rooms and hallways of the magnificent Pink House.
At the time officials do not work, the Casa Rosada is open to public tours.
La Casa Rosada is the official seat of the executive branch of the government of Argentina.
The Casa Rosada was built in the location which the top political institutions of Argentina
resided. The current Italian-style building, however, dates back only to 1873.
It’s balcony has
served as a podium
by many figures
including Eva Perón
and Juan Domingo
Perón.

4. Fourth visit: Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral
The Buenos Aires Cathedral is one of the most enduring and beautiful buildings of the capital.
The Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral is an iconic and historically important structure in the
center of the capital city. The church is located in the central part of the city near Plaza de
Mayo.
Besides being the central Catholic Church in Buenos Aires, it is also the burial place of
General de San Martin.

5. The next and most beautiful place in Buenos Aires:
Colombus Theatre
Is the main opera house in Buenos Aires, Argentina, acoustically considered to be
amongst the five best concert
venues in the world.
The present Colón replaced an
original theatre which opened in
1857.
It is in the heart of the city. The
auditorium has 2,487 seats.
The Colon's acoustics are considered to be so good as to place it in the top five performance
venues in the world. Luciano Pavarotti held a similar opinion.

6. The day keep on with The Recoleta Cemetery
Is one of the main tourist attractions in the
neighborhood. It was designed by the French
architect Prosper Catelin.
The cemetery is located next to the former
monastery of the Recollect Fathers. It is an
outstanding display of nineteenth- and
twentieth-century funerary art and
architecture, with private family crypts of
the bourgeoisie and mausolea of the
landowning classes.
The mortal remains of many figures in Argentine history can
be found here: Juan Bautista Alberdi, Manuel Dorrego,
Bartolomé Mitre, Juan Manuel de Rosas, Cornelio Saavedra,
Guillermo Brown, and Domingo Faustino Sarmiento.
Perhaps the most popular among them is the tomb of Eva
Perón whose grave is visited daily by large numbers of
tourists and admirers of Peronism.

7. Finishing the day
By the time the day was coming to his end, we were going to have a rest.
First, we went to the hotel and relaxed a moment.
Then we had dinner and the last
activity of the day was bowling.
It wasn’t as excited as we
expected, but it was amused
after all. We couldn’t wait to
arrive to the hotel, we were
really tired! so, as you might
imagine, we slept really well.
