Description

Discover the Recoleta Cemetery in Buenos Aires, where some of the city's wealthiest families are buried. Learn about the cemetery's history and hear stories of the people buried here. In the 1880s, some families in Buenos Aires had so much money and lived in such amazing palaces that they started to get worried about how their lives would be after death. That's when they got interested in the Recoleta Cemetery and as they had a high status started to import entire mausoleums from Europe made by the best artist you could hire at the time. During the tour, get to know each corner of this cemetery and discover how a couple decided to show their bad relationship in their mausoleum until the end of time, the story of a woman that was buried alive, and the most visited mausoleum in this cemetery where Evita Peron is buried.
