Recoleta Cemetery in Photos: Buenos Aires, Argentina
We strolled through Cementerio de la Recoleta (Recoleta Cemetery) where thousands of famous — including Evita Perón — and not-so-famous Argentineans are buried. The cemetery is massive and the tombs are beautiful. Some of the tombs are well cared for while others are falling apart. There’s a striking life and death contrast about the place.
Here are some photos:
Great photos!! I love the cats.
Weren’t the stray cats scary?
We were hoping the people in the tomb (the the hand sticking out) were workers and not someone causing trouble. Since the cats were all gathered around we were fairly certain this was someone who fed them!
Wow. How awesome!!!!! can’t wait to see more!
