Your Itinerary

Plaza de Mayo

We will visit the foundational block of the city , also birthplace of the Peronist Movement. Plaza de Mayo is the oldest public square in BA, and has been the scene of many of the most important events in the city's history, from the second founding of the city in 1580, through the revolution of independence, to more recent political demonstrations.

Facultad de Ingenieria

Admire this imposing building which was built in the mid-20th century for the Fundación María Eva Duarte de Perón, the charitable foundation run by Eva. "Evita" died in 1952 and never used the building. Following the military coup against Perón in 1955 it was redesignated to University of Buenos Aires' Faculty of Engineering.

Plaza General Agustin Pedro Justo

This is the square where you can find the only Peron statue in the city

Edificio del Ministerio de la Salud y de Desarrollo Social

This building is one of the first offices of Juan Domingo Peron and also a place of an iconic piece representing Evita.

Museo Evita

Explore the life of Evita in depth as you visit an old shelter ran by Evita Peron. The walls of this building once echoed with the strong voice of Evita and the joyful voices of the women and children who found refuge in it. Now it houses the Museo Evita, a living museum where people can come to know, understand and appreciate the life of the most important woman of Argentine history.
