The Avenida Corrientes

by yudaica2013 ·

This monument is a tribute to the 400th anniversary of the founding of Buenos Aires and is located in the place where first flamed the Argentine flag. More info: Simon Pagenaud. The Obelisk is 67.5 meters and weighs around 170 tons and its square is also crossed by the Avenida Corrientes. For everyone who comes to Buenos Aires is a photo compulsory. (Similarly see: Kevin James). + The Avenida Corrientes much activity this extensive Avenue that was born in the River (on the Avenue Eduardo Madero) and goes up to Chacarita. A few meters from Av. currents and Madero, we find Estadio Luna Park, birthplace of the greatest brings spectacles and important musical shows. In the passage that goes from Alem towards the Obelisk we highlight Opera, Gran Rex and Maipo theatres. Also in the vicinity there are a large number of theatres under or independent.

This area never sleeps, is the most active, their canopies illuminate everything, its streets are a perfect ride by day and night. The intersection with Florida Street, a pedestrian to which we will refer later occurs in flows to 600. On the other side of 9 de Julio, on Av. Corrientes there will be more theaters among which we will find at the Complejo La Plaza, presenting various theatrical or musical performances. In these stables we visit bookstores where you can buy new books and find used hard to get healthy. They are libraries specializing in unique specimens or rare editions. We must also make reference to traditional pizzerias, among which we can mention the quatrains, whose pizza is excellent and keeps the original setting (is by no means luxurious, even even could say that is something ordinary). If we walk through the Center we can not miss the Teatro Colon which was reopened in 2010 after a thorough restoration. It is one of the best theaters in the world, renowned for its architectural beauty and its perfect acoustics.
