La Recoleta Cemetery

The Recoleta Cemetery was one of my more memorable stops in Buenos Aires becuase I have never really seen anything like it in the states. At first glace it looks like a little city with tiny building and tiny streets. But each structure is a mausoleum holding the elite of Buenos Aires and Argentina. The mosoliums were sampling architectual styles from all over the world. Each one is completely unique.





This is Eva Perron's grave.
I could tell the stray kittys rule this place. They were all taking naps in the sun when I was walking through. Overall a very interesting but alittle bit creepy place.

Beautiful pictures!

In Brazil we also have beautiful cemeteries. My first photography class was in a cemetery and he had a very interesting architecture.

Congratulations on your blog!
