“where Eva Perón is buried”
La Recoleta Cemetery (Spanish: Cementerio de la Recoleta) is a cemetery located in the Recoleta neighbourhood of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It contains the graves of notable people, including Eva Perón, presidents of Argentina, Nobel Prize winners, the founder of the Argentine Navy and a granddaughter of Napoleon. In 2011, the BBC hailed it as one of the world's best cemeteries, and in 2013, CNN listed it among the 10 most beautiful cemeteries in the world.
I don't think anyone would go to Buenos Aires and not visit Recoleta Cemetery. It's very cool, somewhat cryptic as you can probably imagine but super unique. Former presidents, military generals, artists and, most famously, Eva Perón, are buried here in incredible mausoleums of stone and bronze. There are more than 6400 tombs in this city of the dead, densely packed against one another. Definitely on my Buenos Aires short-list.
