Recoleta Cemetery
An elegant last resting place for eminent residents. The elaborate tombs were built above ground because the bodies would float to the surface in the marshy land. Home to Eva Perón and other dignitaries. Tombs that have fallen into disrepair are often not maintained, so be prepared to see a few coffins! Well worth a visit.

La Biela Cafe
A great place to settle in for a few hours outside, under the huge ancient tree. "Biela" translates as "piston rod", and racers used to gather here a long time ago. It was a favourite dining place of the Argentinian writers Jorge Luis Borges and Adolfo Bioy Cesares, and there are statues of them at the front.

La Biela
Very nice cafe just outside of the cemetery, shaded by an enormous rubber tree. In very ancient times, it was a saying: If you are not greeted at La Biela, you do not exist. When the bill comes, remember that the largest part of the cost was not the meal, but the right to show yourself there.
