We took a walking tour around the district of Recoleta yesterday. We dipped in and out of residential areas, buildings and museums, churches and the famous Recoleta Cemetary, and all the while we were given descriptions and a history of Argentina ... very interesting. Lasted for almost 3 hours.
The cemetary is particularly interesting. TIP: don´t get behind in your payments (about $20 per month) or they open the doors slightly, allowing everyone to see inside. You could see through grills and glass in many of them anyway. Eventuall they clear everything out and resell, making way for new tennants!!!
Of course after a big day out (not that we walked, we experienced a taxi ride ... which was vastly different from other taxi rides in SA) we ended up back at out local. What a comfortable place that is. So old and cosy. Mike and Lou did well sussing that out before we arrived.
