Floralis Genérica
Flower sculpture in a park near our flat in Recoleta. It opens and closes in the morning and evening.

Ateneo bookshop, Avenida Santa Fe, Buenos Aires
Former theatre converted into a bookshop with a cafe where the stage was. Great books, and you can browse all day...

Madres de la Plaza de Mayo
The Mothers of the Disappeared or Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo protest against crimes during the dictatorship of 1976-1983, and nowadays also use their weekly protest to highlight other issues.

Casa Rosada
Where Evita used to hang out.

Recoleta II
There are loads of dog-walkers around the Recoleta neighbourhood. These guys are waiting while their walker drops off one of their troupe.

Boca I
Building in La Boca neighbourhood, painted in the local football team's colours and featuring some famous figures from Argentina on the balcony.
