What people say

"This is a pretty massive cathedral, though nothing truly unique that isn't in every other cathedral in the world. But still interesting and worth it to see and take a look around. The Pope Francisco once lectured from here. The most interesting thing about this cathedral is that inside you can find the mausoleum of San Martin, the Argentine liberator of Argentina, Chile, and Peru. Two guards stand outside of the tomb, but you are free to walk around and take photos. There is a changing of the guards at 1pm and 3pm. They switch between Plaza de Mayo and the tomb of San Martin."
Niko Dudi
"One of the most important catholic churches in Argentina, located in front of Plaza de Mayo. Here lies the remains of General Don Jose de San Martin, the Liberator of America. Also we can find a museum in honor of Pope Francisco, with some personal and liturgical objects he used over 15 years."
"Este monumental edificio es el principal templo catolico de Argentina y sera nuestra próxima parada! Al cual entraremos y sin lugar a dudas, quedaremos impactados por su arquitectura y ornamentación "

Mentioned in these guides

I have been living in Argentina for the past year (plus 5 months in Buenos Aires back in 2005). This is one of my favorite cities in the entire world, and I want to share with you what makes it so great. This 10 day itinerary begins on a Friday morning, and is arranged according to market schedules, or other events in the city that fall on particular days. But you can certainly do the activities out of order, and fit them to your schedule as needed. I have planned this 10-day itinerary to allow you to maximize your days, and hours in this amazing city, but still allow you to enjoy the small moments without feeling overwhelmed, and get rest when needed. I have spent around 100 hours researching, writing descriptions to give detailed information of every place mentioned in this itinerary, visiting and testing out each day; they are all genuine recommendations. I have carefully planned out and timed each activity, including transportation and time moving between sites. I have also linked related articles and videos from my blog and YouTube channel. This itinerary will provide you not only with daily activities, but information on how to get the best exchange rate, how to stay safe, and information for transportation- how to get from spot to spot, so you can put as little time into planning as possible. Let me do that for you! :) This is not the ideal itinerary for those seeking the nightlife and parties. It is full of morning, daytime, and evening activities (with a few optional activities that go into the night) to help you get to know the culture of Buenos Aires and Argentina. It does not include nightclubs. This is a great itinerary if you are coming to Buenos Aires for the first time and you want to see all the important places, along with a few extra gems. This can also serve if you live in the city but have friends and family coming to visit. I've got it all planned out for you! I have included a lot of walking in this itinerary, though I have attempted to concentrate each day in one particular area of the city whenever possible. However, the city is full of transportation options if you prefer less steps due to accessability issues, or fatigue. I strongly suggest reading through the entire itinerary at the beginning of the week in case there are places where you need to make a reservation. If so, it will be listed at the top of each day.
