Buenos Aires, Argentina

 

Nothing says Argentina like the Tango.

Casa Rosada (Pink House) the President’s Palace, today is the office of the President and the living quarters are elsewhere. It is from this very balcony that Eva Peron addressed the adoring working class crowds (both the real Eva and Madonna).

Recoleta Cemetery is in the heart of the most upscale area of town and formerly was the burial ground of the Argentina’s wealthy. Ironically Evita is buried here (after years of being hidden in Milan) and is the reason for most of the visitors.
