The character of the walk
Buildings change purpose along this walk: a reservoir hides behind a decorative facade, while books occupy a former theatre. Recoleta’s cultural buildings continue the theme of urban interiors, but visits require separate time. Floralis ends the walk beside park space; movement of its petals is not guaranteed
Landmarks along the way
Palacio de Aguas Corrientes: a former water reservoir with an ornate ceramic exterior; El Ateneo Grand Splendid: a bookshop in a former theatre; Recoleta Cultural Centre: a cultural complex in a former convent building
Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes (Buenos Aires): an art museum beside Recoleta’s park spaces; Floralis Genérica: a large metal flower sculpture beside the Faculty of Law
