"Recoleta Cemetery is one of the most visited highlights in Buenos Aires, famous for its stunning architecture and the famous figures buried there. Many people refer to it as a miniature city of mausoleums and monuments where the remains of Argentina’s elite, influential families, and historic personalities rest. Spanning four city blocks, the cemetery dates back over 200 years. It contains around 4,700 tombs, with 75% still in use. . . . One of the first things visitors notice about Recoleta Cemetery is the extraordinary variety of architectural styles. Far from uniform, the mausoleums here blend neoclassical façades with Gothic spires, Egyptian obelisks, Byzantine domes, and Art Deco geometry. Many resemble miniature chapels or cathedrals, complete with stained glass and ironwork. These tombs weren’t just built to honor the dead—they were constructed to impress the living. The wealthier the family, the more elaborate the mausoleum. In some cases, architects who had designed national monuments were commissioned to build family vaults." secretsofbuenosaires.com/secrets-of-recoleta-cemetery/?gad_source=1 AP1101943
