Discover the origins of the City of Buenos Aires in the historic Plaza de Mayo!
Your visit to the City of Buenos Aires would be incomplete if you don't visit and learn about the history of Plaza de Mayo!
Plaza de Mayo is located in the Monserrat neighborhood, and it is the most important square in the City, the one that gave rise to Buenos Aires back in 1580 when Juan de Garay arrived in these then-unknown lands.
Plaza Mayor, Plaza de Armas, Plaza del Fuerte, Plaza de la Victoria, and Plaza 25 de Mayo are some of the names that Plaza de Mayo has received over the years, as it has been the site of the most significant and important events in Argentine history.
Historic buildings such as the Cabildo, the Metropolitan Cathedral, and the Casa Rosada surround Plaza de Mayo.
The first subway line in South America, the Monument to General Manuel Belgrano, and the Pyramid of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo are some of the attractions we can find there, and through them, we can learn about the history of the City of Buenos Aires and Argentina.
I invite you to explore this corner of the City with me and make your visit to Buenos Aires much more complete! I'll be waiting for you.
