Come with us as we visit the two main cemeteries of
Buenos Aires: La Chacarita and La Recoleta. Some of the
interesting history of this great city is reflected in the stories
of the lives of its famous residents and the art and symbols
of its unique monuments. As we stroll down the streets and
avenues of two of the largest cemeteries in the world, we
briefly learn about lives of some of the people prominent in
the history of Argentina. These include such names as
Bartolomé Mitre, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, Facundo
Quiroga, Juan Manuel de Rosas, Carlos Pellegrini and, of
course, Eva Perón. In addition, we mention some of the
great musicians and famous writers like Carlos Gardel,
Anibal Troilo, Osvaldo Pugliese, José Hernández,
Alfonsina Storni and Victoria Ocampo. Also you will learn
about some of the interesting symbols that add to the
fascinating history of these two great cities of the dead.
