Plaza de Mayo, Buenos Aires, Argentina The May Square is located in the Porteño Downtown, neighborhood of Monserrat, in the area where the foundation of Buenos Aires took place. The Plaza de Mayo is the most important and oldest public square of the city. The name of this square commemorates the Revolution of May 25, 1810, date in which the citizens gathered around to expel the Viceroy and form a creole government. Since then, the Square has been a silent witness to the most important political and social events in the country. 20 minutes
Catedral Primada, Buenos Aires, Argentina The Metropolitan Cathedral of Buenos Aires, can be found in the San Nicolas neighborhood, just in front of the Plaza de Mayo and a few steps from the Casa Rosada.
The construction of this famous temple began in the seventeenth century and just ended at the beginning of the 20th century.
However, in the end, there is no doubt that the current one, is an ideal temple to be the main house of God in Argentina.
As an interesting fact, it is that this was precisely the place where today Pope Francis, developed many years of his life and work. 20 minutes
Cabildo, Buenos Aires, Argentina In front of the Plaza de Mayo, to the west, between Avenida de Mayo and Diagonal Sur, or General Roca Street, is the Cabildo.
