Plaza de Mayo (May Square)

Located between Rivadavia and Hipolito Yrigoyen Avs. and Bolivar and Balcarce Streets. The first place to visit. Located in downtown, this is the city's most historical place. Argentina's most important events happened here. May Revolution of 1810, the Constitution of 1860, the massive Peronist concentration of 1945, the events of December 2001 ...

Every Thursday the Mothers of May Square gather here to claim for their missing children. In front of the Square we see the Casa Rosada (seat of the National Government), the City Hall and the House of Culture, the Cabildo and the Cathedral. Warning: watch out with the pigeons of the Square ... They can leave you a "present". You can buy corn or bread to feed them. Subway Line A exit at Estacion Plaza de Mayo.
