  3. Public art is mostly seen in Recoleta and Palermo. Did you know that the name "Recoleta" comes from an old Spanish word meaning "to remember."? Its history dates to the late colonial period and the establishment of a convent where Recoleta Cemetery, Evita's final resting place, now sits. Once on the edge of Buenos Aires, Recoleta is now one of its most exclusive shopping and residential neighborhoods. Marble buildings reminiscent of Paris and green leafy streets make up the main impression of this area. The apartment rental in Buenos Aires I got when I was in Argentina was here so I was always shopping and checking out the lastest trends!
