The Cementerio de la Recoleta:

Address: Azcuénaga, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Phone:+54 11 4803-1594

Open: 7am-5.45pm daily

Admission: free

This is where all the rich families in Buenos Aires have their final resting places. Expect to see big ornate tombs. Be sure to visit the tomb of Eva Perón, the daughter of an aristocrat and beloved First Lady who, despite having the most visited tomb in the cemetery, is considered by many to be too close toward the people for eternal interment in Recoleta.

Go north to see University Building and Floralis Generica Sculpture.

4:00pm

Visit the

Museo Evita

Address: Lafinur 2988, Buenos Aires, Capital Federal, Argentina

Transport Subte D, Plaza Italia/37, 59, 60, 102 bus

Telephone 011 4807 9433, 011 4807 0306

Open: 1-7pm Tue-Sun

Admission: AR$5

Opened in 2001, this museum is housed in an aristocratic residence that Juan Perón expropriated; he converted it into a women's shelter for his wife's quasi-statal welfare agency. Paintings, posters and busts are displayed alongside the outfits Eva wore on tours of Europe, with the star exhibits being two dresses designed by Paco Jamandreu, which she wore for her audiences with the Pope, and her libreta cívica (ID card): number 0.000.001. Arguably better than the museum itself is the newly refurbished restaurant and outdoor terrace.

Day 2:

9:30am 

Do a Gaucho Day Trip from Buenos Aires to Don Silvano Ranch

From Buenos Aires do a scenic ride through the Argentine pampas (plains) to Estancia (Ranch) Don Silvano. When you arrive at the estancia, your day of gaucho fun begins with a friendly welcome reception including empanadas, wine and juice.

Visit some of the ranch’s attractions, including the museum and bakery, before watching a milking demonstration – you can even participate in this daily activity if you like! Then watch the gauchos saddle up the horses, and take off on a leisurely horseback ride through the countryside.

Back at the ranch, during lunch, be entertained by a folkloric song and dance show, and then work off your meal by participating in some traditional Argentine dances. Later, go for a carriage or tractor ride, and then watch the gauchos show off their incredible horse-riding skills with ring races and other performances.

Before heading back to Buenos Aires, enjoy a glass of mate (an Argentine drink of yerba mate leaves steeped in hot water) accompanied by sweet cakes with quince jelly.
