Sailing to Argentina to see a cemetery 🇦🇷 | Buenos Aires

Imagine a cemetery being one of your city’s highlights? Ice cream, parks, empanadas, and a dialect of Spanish that I could barely understand, Buenos Aires is a wildly unique Latin American city. The people look and sound European, but they might get offended if you say that…Am I right?

A friend of mine plays the organ at concerts in the Kirchner Cultural Center. It's a truly amazing place to visit.

So cool! I’ll have to visit again and see for myself

[@claudiomaxl8488]

It's not a Post Office building (that was its former function), it;s the Kirchner Cultural Center, the most impressive cultural center in the world (in architectural terms)

[@lucasinrica]

Yesss it seems to function as a cultural centre now. Such an impressive building

You were missing information about the cemetery to make it interesting for you, you just need to have a little sensitivity and some intellectual curiosity. There rest presidents, heroes, Nobel Prize winners, intellectuals, and each grave has a story. Even to be a tourist you have to have an attitude. The subway of Argentina is one of the first to be inaugurated in the world, the 7th country in the world to have this transportation system. Welcome to BA, have a nice stay.

What great insights! Thank you for sharing

Ahi van enterrados solo los que tienen mucha plata.

@@nahu9012 en el resto de los cementerios, tambien se entierran ricos, y afortunados. el Recoleta es para gente ilustre, no tanto ricos.

[@lucasinrica]

@@nahu9012 ah en serio? Pero si eso parece correcto

[@nahu9012]

@@lucasinrica si igualmente hay enterrada mucha gente conocida de la historia argentina, pero tambien hay muchos politicos chorros, hay empresarios millonarios que no son tan importantes en la historia argentina y tambien estan en ese cementerio .
