This unlikely tourist attraction is a synthesis of the city’s art, history and devotion as well as a macabre adventure for kids. A walk through the Recoleta Cemetery unfolds a hodgepodge of extravagant and often ostentatious tombs and mausoleums that serve as a tribute to Argentina’s rich and famous. The biggest draw is the Duarte family mausoleum, which houses the grave of Eva Peron. Every day thousands of devotees pay tribute to Argentina’s infamous ex-leader. Visit the 18th century Basilica del Pilar, located next to the cemetery, noted as much for its architecture as the baroque artifacts found inside.
